Because the styledir code does not recurse through subdirectories,
something you wanted. I personally would prefer that menus remain simply
flat text files so that I can move them easily between systems. Also, I
tend to be wary of lines like "It should only raise the total codebase of
BlackBox by a few KB." Thats how we got feature creep in this window
manager to begin with. As Jason suggested, have a look at modifying his
script, as this will easily do what you want.
