Research direction

Start with IntellijAzureActionManager$ActionGroupWrapper in com.microsoft.azure.toolkit.intellij.common.action and reproduce the ServicesPopup error on the reported IntelliJ build. Check the plugin.xml or class constructor for the missing default action text. Done means the plugin no longer reports the empty-menu-item exception.
