I think a submenu would also be a good idea.

We currently have something like this in the menu:
- [suggestions]
- -----------------------------
- Spellcheck
- Add > [Submenu]
- Ignore All
- AutoCorrect > [Submenu]

My suggestion would be:
- [1.1.0 suggestions]
- More suggestions > [Submenu with 1.0.9 suggestions]
- -----------------------------
- Spellcheck
- Add > [Submenu]
- Ignore All
- AutoCorrect > [Submenu]
