It's not really a pain in the bum, as you don't have to do anything
about it to use it. Besides, they're not really dynamic, so it doesn't cost
extra time to generate menus at runtime, whereas real dynamic menus do.

I personally don't use the Debian menus (maybe just for browsing what
applications are installed on a machine). Normally, you only have a small
amount of applications you use, so you can just define your own statical menu
and see that the apps exist on all machines you work on. I have a separate
extra rc file per machine for adding machine-spoecific applications.

cheers,
Remko
