Maybe, sorting with start/stop is not very user friendly as the user needs to click/navigate through three sub-menus to find out which server applications there are.
An alternative could be: Servers |_ deegree |_ start |_ start |_ geoserver |_ start |_ start |_ geonetwork |_ start |_ start |_ geomajas |_ start |_ start |_ mapserver |_ start |_ start |_ mapnik |_ start |_ start |_ mapguide |_ start |_ start |_ 52n |_ start |_ start |_ ... |_ start |_ start maybe someone else will come up with a more sophisticated solution?
