great, then we should only commit features that are usable for the 
majority from now on. I don't see a benefit here for most users, also 
the new feature to put the "not-in-menu" items to the bottom is quite ok 
for some users but not for the majority IMHO. People agreed to disable 
this feature as well. So I don't know why this policy wasn't used then?

I'm glad Kasper works on new ideas, but all of us should have commented 
when his patch was lying around for quite some time in the core list 
before he commited it.

What about this: This feature get's enabled once the tree holds more 
than 50 items in it ;-)

Yeah, we need a good an well-thought idea + system for that. I'll 
discuss this in the HCI team.
