gdebi already has a single-item menu: the Help menu. Various other
single-item menus are found in many other Gnome applications, including
Calculator, Character Map, the Device Manager, and the Gnome games.
There is nothing wrong with a menu having one item, if that is the only
appropriate item for that menu. That gdebi is not a text editing
application doesn't matter: neither are Rhythmbox, Nautilus, or
Inkscape, but they all have Edit menus with Copy items.
Alerts don't have Edit menus (in Gnome, at least) only because Gnome
uses in-window menu bars, so giving alerts menu bars would add clutter.
But gdebi already has a menu bar, so providing an Edit menu would barely
add any clutter, and it would make the existence of the Copy function
much more discoverable. Thanks!
