I've finally tracked it down on my Windows 7 computer to

/cygdrive/c/Users/cdr/AppData/Roaming/Microsoft/Windows/SendTo

Did that.  In the shortcut properties, I followed Anton (with slight 
modification, since I routinely put my own stuff in /usr/local) to enter 
in the "target" field

C:\cygwin\bin\mintty.exe -e c:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe -c 
C:\cygwin\usr\local\bin\vim.sh

with the vim.sh that he suggests.

Right-click and "Send To" now briefly flashes a Cygwin console but then 
immediately closes it.
