That's not the way menus work and even if you figure out how to make it
do that you'll have something that is confusing for the users.
Changing the behavior of standard interfaces should never be done
unless you have an overpowering reason to do so -- I'd suggest that you
have an "options" menu item that opens a modal window where the user
can check/uncheck all of the options desired.
