Public bug reported:
I noticed after installing Xubuntu 14.04.1 at home, there were a whole
slew of entries missing on the system menus (the mouse button).
When I brought up the menu editor, menulibre, it showed me lots of
things that should have been on the menus as they are marked as "on" but
most of them do not appear in the menus at all.
I made some changes in the Other and System menus, and they both
disappeared from the menus altogether. I had to re-edit them and then
log out and log back in to get them, but they don't stay. The Other
menu has disappeared again and I haven't gotten it back by the log-out-
log-in method.
This is very Windows style and it simply does not work.
I have tried to find the menu settings configuration file, but I can't
tell for sure which one it is or I'd just edit that manually.
Please fix the menus or their editor so they both work together.
If you can tell me how to do this manually, that would suffice.
I've been very happy with Ubuntu and Xubuntu for almost four years now.
This setback is extremely disappointing (in Xubuntu 12.04, all of these
features worked perfectly).

I expect to be able to edit the system menus and have the edits appear
in the menus afterward.
My edits do not appear and other changes occur unexpectedly (like the
Other menu disappearing).
