As promised/threatened I'm back with details. I also looked at your
suspected reasons in 'post #30 of this thread'
(http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?p=565065#post565065), and
I would say that your #1 and #2 describe my situation pretty well. Ben
mentioned that at this stage he was focusing on re-ordering, and
fortunately that alone will get me most of the way to where I want to
go. 

Looking at my first pass at customizing menus with 7.6 I really haven't
changed that much yet. Here are the un-customized (or semi-customized,
since I do control what appears on the Home menu) in 7.5.1:

SBC1:
NP
My Music: artists / albums / genres / years / new music / random mix /
music folder / playlists / dynamic playlists / search / switch library
Extras: other players / SDT / The Sync / SPC
My Apps: AccuRadio / BBC / Last.fm / LMA / Live365 / Napster / Odeo /
Pandora / Podcast Player / RadioTime / Rhapsody / SHOUTcast / Slacker /
SomaFM / Sounds & Effects / radioio
Favorites: as per my choice
Napster
Pandora
Turn On <player>
Choose Player
Search
Settings: shuffle / repeat / spicefly / alarm clock / audio / home menu
/ image viewer / screen / sleep / SB name / sync / advanced


Touch:
My Music
SD card
Internet Radio: NPR Radio > list of shows (because of an applet???)
Extras: other players / SDT / The Sync / SPC / Custom Clock / 
My Apps
Favorites
Napster
Pandora
Settings
Choose Player

And here is a more customized (still a work in progress) SBC:
NP
My Music: artists / albums / new music / playlists / Dyn Playlists /
genres / years / random mix / music folder / search / switch library
Favorites
Napster
Pandora
Extras: The Sync / SDT / SPC / Other players
My Apps
Search
Settings
Choose Player
Turn On <player>

So not that different at all. At least not yet. I've moved Favorites,
Napster, and Pandora up in the Home menu, and re-ordered the My Music
and Extras sub-menus to put the things I use more often at the top.
I've put another thing I use often (Turn On/Off) at the bottom of the
Home menu to take advantage of a quick, blind spin-and-stop to get
there. Later on I may move Choose Player to that last space, but
definitely it's a waste (for me) to have Settings sitting there at the
end. And I'll probably move/hide some things in Settings to make things
more streamlined for me.

Being able to re-order MyApps would be a nice treat. 

Does that help answer your questions?
