What about modifiers? AddMenu uses '^' and '#' to identify key
combinations with the Ctrl modifier and Function keys; is there any way to
set that explicitly?
(IIRC, only the lower 8 bits are used for the scancode, so the upper 8
might be used to store any modifiers...)

Ok, but is there something that absolutely needs to be done for the
tag value, or does it just have to be preserved in between SetMenu() and
GetMenu() calls?
BTW, thanks for the description- I'll update the docs accordingly.
