I'm going to channel comments I've heard Q make here because he's not 
able to do it himself at the moment.

While there were some good things about the v1 implementation of pie 
menus, they also had some flaws - such as not opening a submenu centered 
on the mouse click.

I think that if someone were to step up and do the work to create a 
better pie menu implementation that we could do good comparisons with 
(and especially if it allowed menu style to be a preference setting), 
then it would be a much more interesting discussion.

Note: that in no way should be interpreted as "we would take it if it 
happened" - I can't make any such commitment on my own at this time.  If 
someone wants to sign up for the work, I'm willing to sponsor the 
discussion.
