It depends on your 'menu' use.
I've a few application icons directly in my panel (the applications I
always use). For application I sometimes use, I generally start them
by typing in a terminal.
So, my menu use is:
- to drag application icon in the panel
- to see all the applications in a domain that are installed on my
system when I want to be some unusual things (recording and
editing sound recently). The Debian menu is the best way for me to
find the info (the gnome menu without the Debian submenu is way
to restricted to be useful in this case).
I do not understand why you cannot understand that some people do
not necessarily use menus as the gnome team wants its "users" to use
it (ie as a preselected small list of applications fully integrated
with gnome)
