Re: [gtk-list] Re: Lack of gtk_menu_delete function

[Jeremy Weatherford <xidus xidus net>]

I think you're missing the point... even if there is a way to do that
(which still isn't useful in my case since I don't want to keep up with
the GtkMenuItem pointers), why shouldn't there be a gtk_menu_remove
function, similar to gtk_clist_remove?  And what about gtk_menu_get_item?
It seems to me like breaking encapsulation to go in and remove/destroy the
menu item yourself when it's supposed to be owned by the GtkMenu.
