I don't want to provoke anyone or start a flame war, but why does the
debian menu system still exist?  It had it's place in the past, but all
modern DEs and panel/menu systems support the FD.o XDG application
standards.  Maybe it's a little strong to say it should be dropped (I
can see uses in some special cases), but why is it enabled by default?

Hi, I don't use any DE at all, only fluxbox as WM. And the debian
menu comes really handy to me, since it avoids me to edit several
things by hand. So I'd say you must take into account those that do
not use "modern DEs"... Just in case we get forgotten, :-)
