You should have read the TO-DO list, as this is in there. :)

I'll get to it eventually if someone else doesn't mail me a patch for
it first. It's not too high up on my priorities right now.

It shouldn't be too bad, as long as you don't go crazy. The more
different XPMs you use in the menus, the more colors & memory it'll
eat up. But if they are all relatively small and use similiar colors,
even a lot of different ones shouldn't cause any problems at all.
