I kind of liked Chris' approach of adding a submenu
http://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/1451902412-25459-1-git-send-email-chris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I don't mind either way - what was decided for that patch - is it
going in?

I think we'd like to have it, but last time it blew up on
randconfig. Chris, do we avoid that now?

Tvrtko, in any case, you could pick up the submenu part from there.

I have - and also respun the enlarged series of misc fixes and debugging infrastructure. Reviewers welcome. :)

Regards,

Tvrtko
