Tabs? Or tags?

AFAIK, the only "documentation" of menudata.xml is the file which
reads it: gui/wxpython/gui_modules/menudata.py.

If it had a DTD, it would be roughly:

<!ELEMENT menudata (menubar*)>
<!ELEMENT menubar (menu*)>
<!ELEMENT menu (label, items)>
<!ELEMENT items ((separator|menuitem|menu)*)>
<!ELEMENT menuitem (label, help, keywords?, handler, command?, shortcut?)>
<!ELEMENT separator EMPTY>
<!ELEMENT label (#PCDATA)>
<!ELEMENT help (#PCDATA)>
<!ELEMENT handler (#PCDATA)>
<!ELEMENT command (#PCDATA)>
<!ELEMENT keywords (#PCDATA)>
<!ELEMENT shortcut (#PCDATA)>

Except that the order of children within menuitem elements isn't
consistent (even if this was fixed, it isn't likely to stay fixed
unless we enforced it by validating menudata.xml at build time and
treating failure as an error). Python's xml.etree.ElementTree module
doesn't do validation; it just returns a parse tree.
