No - I deinstalled menu and noticed the triggers remained.

No - there is another package, unrelated to menu, unrelated to anything in 
Debian base. It is called openpanel-core and it is part of the OpenPanel 
project (www.openpanel.com). The current development version of that package 
uses triggers. The last stable release does not. I installed the development 
version on my machine, then removed it, then installed the stable release which 
does not support triggers.

> What were the errors that you saw?

The result was:

Processing triggers for openpanel-core ...
postinst called with unknown argument 'triggered'

Agreed.

Apparently I did not search long or deep enough earlier today, and a bug report 
already exists.

Kind regards,
