You have two ways how to achieve this.
1. With built-in means by using Radio buttons for selection of the kind of entry you want in combination with the add links which are auto-created for you already now - by radio buttons you can ask user first what he wants and once selected and new element is created with add link - the radio buttons can disappear. No need for context menus with right-mouse click - everything is visible to your user.
2. If you want to completely customize user interface up to your taste, you can use Authentic Scripting
Unfortunately it is simply impossible to explain everything in this forum. You can either spend some time learning samples (StyleVision comes with a lot of very simple and few complex samples) and reading documentation, or you say you want to get a more or less ready-to-use SPS - in this case proceed with Altova Product Consulting - these guys know a whole lot and are eager to implement any design for you.

Ok, I see your files now, but still no idea what you are trying to do. I'm guessing... again...: if you want to get rid of all those "add" suggestions, click in Design each template, for example, Is, and set Property/Authentic/show "add Name" to no.
This is my last attempt: EXPLAIN/ILLUSTRATE really your problem. Getting tired of guessing...

By the way, there are always methods how you can profit from MapForce Server running multiple mappings at once. If you have a big mapping which takes more time, than you like, you can split it into partial mappings, which you can then join in one short step.
Though from my personal experience in 90% of cases a mapping can be hundreds, thousands times quicker if properly done. Here one of the recent eye-opening examples, where I was able to help user with a single suggestion:

Hmmm. But then, Mr. I'm never happy, be at least as fair to tell all the facts and not only those affecting you personally - running on Windows workstation doesn't infer any additional costs.

Create test files which you can share, but don't expect people to guess for you. Your explanation is very unclear.

For beginners, like you, I would recommend to use StyleVision to design XSLT instead of doing it by hand.

You are simply unfair, sorry, but I'm not going to argue, because you don't want to hear arguments anyway. The least I can say: a very well documented feature is only hidden to people who do not read documentation.
At least you have now confirmed that you've 20+ mappings, and not a single, as you claimed before.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but:
- This fact is fully documented
- Nobody requires you to upgrade
First of all, it is only a matter of time, until Altova starts to optimize mappings for multiple threads - so far they were adding new features like crazy. Second, you can still run multiple mappings at once in parallel.
By the way, MapForce Server is quicker already now, because it runs compiled mappings, whereas MapForce had to load, verify and compile the mapping on every run. For some mappings this is a huge time advantage, for some not.

Attach ALL your files here for better understanding.

Did you look under FlowForce Stream Functions?
http://manual.altova.com/FlowForceServer/stepresultexpressions.htm
The function as-file is pretty much what you are looking for - it takes a stream and creates a temp file out of it, which can be passed as input to MapForce Server.
