I think I want it both in the top-level menubar as well as the
context menu.  The menu item is:
        "Reset Exchange Rate"

All this menu-item needs to do is call:

        gnc_split_register_handle_exchange (reg, TRUE);

Do you mean glade/register.glade here?

Are both menus in glade/register.glade?  I'm confused.
