We may indeed have to give up the generic naming that was very nice while we had the luxury to define the menu layout for a single default install. In the new multi-spin world order, we may have to accept the "name - generic name" style, even if it break localization to a certain degree. For the general problem of menu overcrowding in everything or k+g installations, I believe that only moving to a dynamic menu system like bigboard will significantly improve the situation.
