List attachments as menu items in ribbon group

I am developing a Office.js addin for Outlook. My goal is to display a menu button in the ribbon group whereas the menu items should be the attachments of the mail item currently active.

I am aware of this restriction: https://officespdev.uservoice.com/forums/224641-general/suggestions/13225365-support-dynamic-content-in-add-in-commands-ribbon

I was still wondering if there is a work-around since the list of attachments is already available at the addin's initialization. So I am not trying to dynamically modify the list during the addin's execution, I just need to provide the list of menu items at it's startup (in the manifest).

Any help is much appreciated.

This isn't possible. The ribbon commands are not initialized when your add-in launches, they are all predefined within your manifest file.
