Exactly.

Note that we had the same issue (too many apps in one menu) with the Games
SIG and I created a special games-menus package, which when installed
adds some additional configuration files which do sub-menu the
games menu in both kde and gnome (a must have if you install lots of
games).

Alian, take a look at games-menu, and perhaps you can create the same
for the utilities menu ?

Hans
