Table (and Menu, I guess) attach coordinates are a bit odd. Like the
warning says, you probably want 0, 1, 0, 1. This is hinted at in the
documentation:
http://www.gtkmm.org/docs/gtkmm-2.4/docs/reference/html/classGtk_1_1Menu.html#a0

I guess this should have default values. A patch would be welcome.

But I personally prefer to use the UIManager anyway.
