Hello,

there is a patch of braddock in launchpad, that suggests some 
menu-renaming/rearranging. I like it as it is. (But I also think, there 
need to be some more menu-item work!!) The proposed patch at launchpad 
is a good start.
I have designed a patch (attached) to fit the documentation to 
braddock's work.

I would like to push both patches to git master if nobody complains. 
What do you think?

Kind regards,
Felix
