Bug Description

This is a break-out bug from bug 618587. It was noticed that all RCP apps, not just Eclipse, don't work with the appmenu. I'm attaching a sample RCP app that will hopefully be slightly easier to debug than the enormous Eclipse.

One note from my time researching Eclipse itself: Toggling visibility of menus seems to make Eclipse fill them out.

Better sample Edit (91.7 KiB, application/octet-stream)

Whoops, the first sample didn't even work without appmenu due to a misnamed menu item. Here's a better sample.
