I am not convinced.  If a user installs fvwm without menu, they will
find that they can't do anything at all except start an xterm (which
will be included in 2.2-4) or quit/restart fvwm.  I think that this is
undesirable for a new user who might not yet know how to create their
own menus.

I'm copying this to -devel for wider discussion before I make a
decision.
