Enable education-menus for all users on a host?



Would it be useful to activate the cleaned up menus in education-menus
for all users on a host by adding the host in some host netgroup?

I suspect so, and propose a group named for example
education-menus-hosts is used for this.  The implementation would be
something like this:

The patch is completely untested.

Happy hacking,
