In fact I don't really mind that menus and submenus stuff. the very 
problem I have is :
- configuration tools are mixed with desktop software for common use
- and those bunch of brackets that make the menu heavy.

Even without considering Mandriva, just take Ubuntu as an example. There 
should be a feature like that in Kubuntu too.

I know feisty is in development stage so I didn't want to speak about 
that crash ( it was really unexpected :( ). But globally the feeling is 
the same on Edgy.

My feeling is there is more work on Gnome in Ubuntu that on KDE in Kunbuntu.
