Cau, I am modifying a lot of issues at once, as I think I have something to  
say in general.  
  
In NetBeans API documentation we have few places where we list "layer APIs".  
The most central one is   
http://www.netbeans.org/download/dev/javadoc/layers.html  
This is supposed to help module writers to find information about possible  
folders where it is possible to make their registrations.  
  
I believe that the ability to register actions into menu items of loaders is  
important and shall be documented. That is why please modify your arch*.xml  
documents together with the change in your layers. This is example I put into  
openide/loaders:  
  
<api name="Loaders-folder-any-Actions" category="stable" group="layer"  
type="export" >  
    The actions that the default folder loader shows in its popup menu are  
read from  
    a layer folder <code>Loaders/folder/any/Actions</code>  
    so if any module wishes  
    to extend, hide or reorder some of them it can just register its actions  
there.  
</api>   
  
Possible problem is that you have to modify an arch*.xml of a module which 
provides a javadoc, otherwise it will not be listed in the docs page. If you 
have such module, please modify its arch*.xml, otherwise modify your own 
arch*.xml, in future we can process it, even if it does not have javadoc at 
all. 
 
Thanks for helping to improve our developers documentation.
