Some time during the Gnome 2.8 cycle was spent on the menu system
backend itself, making it use a shared freedesktop.org specification,
but as yet there is no menu editor. The reason the upstream vfolder
"menu editing" is disabled is that its very unstable and crashes a lot.
There will be some changes to the way the panel handles menus in Gnome
2.10, and hopefully we'll get a sane menu editor by then.
