That makes sense :) But, OTOH, it might confuses the users, since what you want is setting up Xfce, while you might end up in a program for another DE without knowing it (as happened to me) and than wondering why it's not working. Can you find a way to bettere identify Xfce (or differentiate somehow) settings programs from other DE ones? >> > If you want to use the debian menu with the Xfce menu in the panel, >> > right click on it, properties and select “use a custom menu >> file”.

It might be back in 4.8. Please, please, reintroduce it: from a user perspective, it's a regression from 4.4 and it's quite "annoying" since several tools still don't ship .desktop files, but only menu, and so are not shown in the Xfce menu (and, for a non tech-savvy guy, can prevent to use the app baliming "hey, I installed it but I can't find in the menu so there must be something wrong"). if it's possible, also some temporary patch to 4.6 would be really welcome.
