Hello, I noticed that sometimes it happens that there are empty submenus, and I tried to see if they can't be suppressed by mconf (if not explicitely done by the kbuild-language). Well, I am not sure if someone wants this change and also if I realized all possible situations and therefore the patch is not meant to be accepted as is but as a proof-of-concept. Because of that I implemented the changes as a new function menu_is_visible_new() and a helper function that walks the whole menu structure and compares the results of the old and the new function. I also tried to add coments to the new function which reflect my understanding but of course might be incomplete or even wrong. I'd be glad if someone takes the time to test and/or review the code or comment on the sanity of such a change. Attached is an example output of the helper function (i.e. empty dialogs that would be suppressed by the menu_is_visible_new()).
