Indeed, writing menu entries isn't difficult --- about thirty seconds
worth of thought it all that's required. Even though this means that
package maintainers should have no reason _not_ to include menu entries,
this makes it entirely possible for the person filing the wishlist bug to
include a "suggested menu file contents" -- the maintainer has to do even
less thinking and is therefore more likely to include it in the next
release. If someone who hasn't used menu before has to figure it out for
the one package they maintain, they may not bother...
