Actually, they are commands, and I use some of them all the time.  Leo's
@menu nodes can show the actual commands, or an alias, more suited to menus.

For example, @item open-cheat-sheet-leo in leoSettings.leo has this body:

    &CheatSheet.leo

This sets the label and so-called accelerator in the menu. The actual
command is open-cheat-sheet-leo.

Previously, I only ever used menus to open settings files.  Now, I do:

<Alt-x>my<tab><return> # my-leo-settings-leo
<Alt-x>leo-set<tab><return> # leo-settings-leo

Consider that users already have 2 menu routes to these leo files via

This redundancy doesn't both me (I was aware of it), and may help newbies.
