'discover-context-menus' look like this:

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(dired
 (description "DIRectory EDitor")
 (actions
  ("Navigation"
   ("DEL" "unmark backward" dired-unmark-backward)
   ("RET" "find file" dired-find-file)
   ("SPC" "next line" dired-next-line)
   ("<" "prev dirline" dired-prev-dirline)
   (">" "next dirline" dired-next-dirline)
   ("^" "up directory" dired-up-directory)
   ("j" "goto file" dired-goto-file)
   ("i" "maybe insert subdir" dired-maybe-insert-subdir)
   ("n" "next line" dired-next-line)
   ("p" "previous line" dired-previous-line)
   ("v" "view file" dired-view-file)
   ("w" "copy filename as kill" dired-copy-filename-as-kill)) ...))
#+END_SRC

and it could easily be derived form an org table:


| Navigation |  |
| (DEL . dired-find-file) |    (RET . dired-find-file)|
