Bug Description
I've noticed that the "Edit Menus" Application for editing the menus (of course) has numerous, and, in my mind serious problems. For example:
1. It's extremely slow (and I have a fast computer with graphics acceleration enabled)
2. It doesn't work properly:
-when you move items around they will rather not go, duplicate, or both (and more)
-the new menu window always appears underneath (this one's not so serious)
3. It could be a lot easier to use and have more features
4. Did I mention it's very slow?
If possible, when this is fixed, could it be made a patch/update so people can get it without having to get another entire distro. version?

I've noticed this problem since 6.06 and it probably existed before that too. I'm thinking it would be good to integrate the edit menus option into the Add/Remove programs application (which is very nice by the way) In some way so you can pick as a new feature "remove" or something and maybe also "show similar programs" and "install selected" (out of list that would appear). I think this fix (when done) should come in with the updates in the update manager when they are released.
