Comment:

 This ticket probably now depends on #2142.

 The other thing is that, as mentioned in comment:5, there is a ''Search
 modules'' tab in the wxGUI Layer Manager, so you can search for modules
 you found in manual or you can even use ''Command console'' tab. So, there
 is a workaround. It is anyway new modern approach to finding things in
 operating systems and applications in general (searching as opposed to
 remember all the menus leading me to the item).

 Moreover, it gets more complicated when there are more ways how to access
 the module from tree-based structure, currently from menu bar and from the
 module tree in ''Search modules'' tab (but some more, more specialized can
 be added in the future).

 Finally, this improvement may be actually considered as a bug by use cases
 when there is no GRASS GUI. Menu way may be considered as unnecessary
 (when using no GUI at all) or as highly confusing (when using some other
 GUI, e.g. QGIS or gvSIG).

 As a result, downgrading the priority by one degree.
