This is difficult to implement. AFAIK you can either tell an application to export its menu (make it available to the global menu widget or KDE Connect) or display it in the app itself. Both simultaneously is not possible. So this could only work in combination with some form of global menu.

I discovered that this is possible using the dbus. At least with KDE applications, you can use a dbus method to 'press' a button on the toolnar / drop down menu.
