no context menus are only populated from code.
as for a notepad in xbmc, here's my opinion:
why would i want to fiddle with the remote / the virtual keyboard when i got this perfectly suited machine (it's called a pc) ?

No there isn't might be a pythonscript.
A simple textviewer is no pain to do, but ascii display can be a bit harder (like to display ascii-art nicely)

For now I recommend using the text editor in UnleashX. I find it pretty nifty.

What for?
The only place I can see it sort of useful is in the "file manager" but even then its probably not worth the time and effort.
In anycase, it has been requested before so perhaps you should use a search next time.

I must say that this is very needed feature and the most needed assosiation for rtf & txt would be under filemanager. I vote for yes.

I can almost guarantee that none of the current developers are interested in such a thing. Your best bet is coding it up yourself, or finding someone from outside the project that is interested in such a feature.
