this makes a lot of sense and - once learned - should make handling much
easier.

some nitpicking:

a)  we shouldn't move things into the App/tmfkap menu at random if their
toplevel menus are missing, that would violate the very concept you summed
up.

b) we've got to do some tests to find out if an icon for tmfkap works out.
is someone already working on the mockups?
