I too would love to control how the menu are organized. Sadly it seems
you can't have any control over it. As far as I could see, menu entries
are simply arranged/sorted in alphabetical order and that's it ! :-/

I hope that some future version of Gnome will give the user total
control over how the menu items (including sub-menus) are arranged :o(
