Good!  I was getting worried.

I noticed that with kde 3.2.2, I have some menu editing capability now ... I 
can add new launchers and I can add new submenues.  Although the new 
launchers do have an effect and can be seen in the menu, the new submenus 
disappear when the menu editor is run again and do not show up as a menu 
item.  I can also move launchers between submenues but, again, this is only 
in the menu editor and does not really effect anything.

I assume, given that FC2 final is "real soon now", the menus will be "fixed 
up" to the best of anyones ability but the true menu fix with full editing 
and gnome/kde compatibility will need be later (hopefully FC3).
