### Problem Description
I'd like the ability to add a text field to a menu item.
### Proposed Solution
I unfortunately lack the knowledge to propose a solution.
### Alternatives Considered
I did look into the documentation and searched for any alternative solutions, hacks, or workaround but came up empty.
### Additional Information
I've been investigating the limits of the Menu rendering ability of Electron recently, and stumbled across this project, written in Swift https://github.com/p0deje/Maccy. The project uses an `NSTextField` to render a textbox within a menu item. It's quite elegant for that kind of application. And so I did some due diligence on the webs to see if Electron supported anything of the sort. I couldn't find anything similar, so here we are.
