One idea: "Options" could be moved to Tools->Options or Edit->Preferences. The
other settings could go there, too. Scan FPC directory would go to Tools.
Enviroment menu would go away.

If you move the "Options", then I'd vote for "Tools->Options", because that sounds more reasonable to look for configuration than the "Edit" menu... (just my opinion)

On the other hand some packages can register their settings into a menu. It
makes sense to have one dedicated menu for settings.

Maybe the packages should be modified to register their settings in the "Options" dialog then (the JCF does that afaik).

To prevent something like this maybe a "best practices" guide for IDE packages should be made (or is there already one?), which could contain something like "register settings in the Options dialog instead of creating a custom menu item"
