I was able to get the "Entire Menu" to appear. Apparently, you have to right click on an application menu entry. If you click on one that opens another submenu, it doesn't work. Actually, I've been trying to figure this out for so long that I've forgotten what it was I wanted to add. Must be break time.
Are there any developers on this list? Have you checked bugzilla to see if this is an actual bug?
If I discover anything, I'll let you knnow.

I actually subscribed to this list because of this very problem and just haven't had time to post about it yet! I have read all kinds of documentation that say to right-click on the place you want to add it, and then from the "entire menu" option choose something like "add app to menu" or some such. I can't remember exactly because that option is not in my menu! The only things I have under "entire menu" are "add this as drawer to panel" and "add this as menu to panel". So I can't figure out how everyone else is getting this non-existent menu item to come up! Then I found another piece (can't remember if it was a mailing list archive, a forum article, web page or what) that said to open applications:/// in nautilus and put it there. So I opened applications:/// and viola! There it was. I opened the folder where I wanted it, right-clicked, got the option "New Launcher". Great! So I filled in the dialog box, put the path to the binary, selected an icon, and hit OK. And then...nothing. Yes, I tried this both running nautilus as root and as a user. In fact I even tried logging out of X and logging is as root and doing it that way. No matter how many times I try it, I hit OK, the dialog box closes, and simply does nothing. So here you say use 'start-here:///'. But that is just one level up- as soon as I open the applications folder, of course, I'm right back to applications:///. So I'm still in the same place. I can open it, but it won't let me actually add anything in there. What the heck?
