This is the best idea I have heard about menu items. And BTW, what about
Options and Settings as KDE options menu. I want to say this:
Main
|
|- New
|- Etc
|- Etc
|----------
|- Options >
| |
| |- All
| |-------------
| |- Opt1
| |- Opt 2
| |- Etc
| |--------------
|- Settings > (the same)
|-----------------
|- Quit
|-----------------
And when you select all in options or properties you open a windows with a
tree in the left where you choose Opt1, Opt2, Etc. The same than the KDE
Control Center.
