That's possible, yes.
The existing ones are similar in that they use
mode/header/tab-line-format, and that one supports certain special
constructs that are implemented in the subroutines called by
mode_line_height. So if the menu-bar will come close to supporting
the same features, it would make sense to try to add it to the group,
indeed.
