Not sure what you are driving at here.

Nothing serious, is just that I missed an icon from the menu.

Presumably there will be a "dconf- editor" for GNOME3 but I have
abandoned GNOME in favour of LXDE anyway.

Yes, but as "gconf-editor" is still there, why to remove the icon? If it
is intended, it's okay, if not, something wrong has happened.

But you are knowledgeable enough to have a look in /usr/share/
applications to see what is what.

Well, I don't care about what to do nor how to restore it (I already know
that), I was asking if this has been experienced by anyone else. If no, I
will report it.

When you say icon, you mean the whole menu item (icon + name), right?

I am using sid. Just checked and it's missing from my menu too, while
the binary still exists.

I can restore it by going to "System->Main Menu" and checking the relevant
box. (No idea why it got unchecked.)
