Thanks for the patches for these, I'll work on integrating them.

This has been fixed since in the last month or so.

I've made a release at http://jimmyk.org/gnome-main-menu/.  I'm not yet
sure how to get it into the bug tracker, but surely it can't be that big
of a deal.  Are there things which do not comply with the "gnome
standard way" besides what you've already mentioned in this mail?  If
so, could you elaborate a bit?

Thanks!
