    This might just be my particular install (7.1/expert/devel),
but before 7.1, I always 'su'd to root and started 'kmenuedit' that
way.  Still works but the changes both to the menu and the panel
aren't 'permanent'.  Sooner or later they're lost.  I have found
that logging out of user, and then back into root's desktop,
running the menu editor from there, then the changes will be kept.
