I cee his point, and I don't disagree with it.  I'm kinda indifferent,
but I do see the point he's trying to make and agree that it's necessary
to modify the menu hierarchy, either now or after it becomes policy. 
Either way it needs to happen and pretty soon.

Which happens first is really a matter of how people want to handle the
policy of changing it and getting it into the policy document as far as
I'm concerned.
