Support macOs custom views inside of a menu item

[damageboy]

While not the most common scenario, I'm interested in replicating custom controls inside of a tray menu like this:

If I understand correctly, this can (?) be achieved by overriding the view of the menu item, for example in swift like so:

let menuItem = NSMenuItem()
menuItem.view = NSSlider(value: 0.5, minValue: 0.0, maxValue: 1.0, target: nil, action: nil)
menu.addItem(menuItem)

Is this achievable with muda?

I can't personally work on this since I don't have a macOS but PRs are welcome and I will help in any way I can.

I managed to do this with a Tauri Plugin using Swift. It's not for all views, just Sliders, but I'm sure this approach can be adapted for anything really. It uses RxSwift to keep values up to date.

My repo is here: https://github.com/brooksdubois/tauri-plugin-native-menu-controls

I'd love to make a contribution to muda in one way or another since I've worked out a TON of issues here with Sliders in the menu bar in particular.

I'm not sure if my solution would need to be redone in Rust somehow? Or if it could be more useful maybe as an example? Or if actually I should publish this as a npm package instead. Not sure, but it works pretty flawlessly.

Let me know what you think. Also, I did join the Discord just now for further discussion.
