Hi, I think the legacy support for menus with overflow in ICS still misses the mark just like menu button did originally in that you still have to (a) know about it & be able to see it (b) press it just to see if there are any menu items for any activity even when there is none, often a wasted interaction. Surely it is a simple thing for legacy support to have overflow or menu indicated dynamically - that there are other menu items for an activity when there actually is, ie actually be context sensitive to the menu state dynamically for the activity not just one time for the application.
That's probably by design to prod you to update to the next arrangement.
