You can use the 'Bean Chooser'  button that is in the lower left corner of
the palette, under the selection arrow, to specify that you wish to drop a
TMenuItem. You could then drop them onto PopupMenu items or Menu items in
the component tree to add them to menus. But the extra dummy items that show
up in the menu designer will always transform JMenuItems, so you would need
to get into the habit of dropping them instead of just labeling them one
after the other.
