Is there a way to select an entry without exiting the menu?
What I have in mind is C-c C-e interface where we have on/off switches
to control other sub-menus. See, Body-only, Export scope, etc
Also, note the fontification. I guess it will also be possible in your
menu generator if we provide propertized strings.
Selecting a group may also echo the description to minibuffer (as Tim
Cross suggested).
Finally, you are only allowing a single key selectors. What about C-key
or M-key?

More generally, it can be a function to create the decorator.

Please refer to org-fast-tag-selection and org-fast-todo-selection.

Since no details are given, I cannot provide any help here. So, good
luck :)
