The test was written before PluggableMenuItemSpec was implemented -
at the time, ToolBuilder used MenuItemMorphs, which can accept either
a selector or a MessageSend as an action. The test verifies that
selectors can be used as actions. Apparently when
PluggableMenuItemsSpec was implemented, it was designed to work only
with MessageSends.
Probably best just to delete the test.
