Removing a menuitem from a menu?

["Michael" <mikejuni yahoo com>]

How?

Using gtk_container_remove()? Is that the right choice?
How about if I want to remove all the menuitems from a menu, but I don't
have
pointers to the menuitems, except the one kept in the menu.

I think gtk should implement those functions like
gtk_menu_remove(GtkMenu* menu, GtkWidget* menuitem);
