For the contextual menu, the UIProcess side is pretty thin, you probably
don't need anything fancy.

On the content side, the only process involved in this case is the
WebProcess. To debug:
1) Start your test app (e.g. MiniBrowser or Safari).
2) Open your WebKit workspace.
3) Attach to your WebProcess (Debug menu->Attach to process).
