           Summary: [BReezy] Menu Editor GUI polish suggestions
           Product: Ubuntu
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: i386
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: gnome-panel
        AssignedTo: seb128 at ubuntu.com
        ReportedBy: vincent.trouilliez at modulonet.fr

In the menu editor, in the left pane, the structure of the Gnome menu looks like :

> Applications
   -
   -
   -
> Preferences
   - Administration
   - Preferences
 

It says "Preferences" instead of "System", it's confusing.

Also, it displays "Administration" first, then below, "Preferences". In the
actual System menu, they are not in that order, it's "Preferences" first, then
"Admin".

The Menu Editor should mimic/picture as closely as possible the actual menu
structure.

Also, I don't think it's necessary to add icons next to the "Applications" and
"System" (once the typo is fixed ie) menus. It really an icon for the sale of
putting an icon, it serves no purpose, it looks overloaded/crowdy and the icons
aren't particularly meaningful at that. To distingush a menu from a menu entry,
we could rely on indentation, print the menu name in bold and/or slightly bigger
font size, maybe add also a little space, or a horizontal line/rule, to visually
separate a menu from its entries.
