Is it possible to attach a listener to all MenuItems in a Menu bar after creating the entire menu bar?

Otherwise I need to call addListener on each MenuItem individually, which is a pain with hundreds of menu items (don't ask why).

With a listener attached to each MenuItem, I would then be able to demultiplex using the text string of the MenuItem.
