The menu structure needs a lot of clean up. Here is some suggestions:
(| means submenu)
* The Group menu:
Misc|Customize -> Groups|Editing groups
The Undo menu should be removed, and the Undo item should be move to
Misc.
Misc|Toggle topics should be removed. It is already in the Topics
menu.
Groups|Score file should be removed, and the Flush cache item should
be moved to Misc.
Groups|Editing groups should be moved to Group|Edit.
Group|Edit kill file should be moved to Group|Edit|Kill file.
Misc|Delete bogus groups should be moved to Groups.
Misc|Find new newsgroups should be moved to Groups.
Misc|SOUP should be moved higher in the menu. It is good to have
submenus near the top.
* The Summary Menu:
Misc|Mark|* should be Misc|(Mark )*
Misc|Cache|* should be Misc|Mark various|*
gnus-score-customize should be added to the Score menu
* The Message Menu:
The "Goto Field" commands should probably be in a separate "Field"
menubar entry.

If these things are done, maybe it is a good moment to implement the
takeover of XEmacs menubar. How hard is it, anyway? Bill?

Is there an Undo menu?

But not until you switch topic mode on.

I don't quite follow... Oh, make the sub-submenus into sub-menus?
Ok.
> Misc|Cache|* should be Misc|Mark various|*
There will probably be more cache commands in the future, so we might
as well leave that as it is, I think.

Take a look at w3-menu.el in the Emacs-W3 distribution - this works out
really well. Each menu is 'named' by a symbol that would be on a
gnus-*-menus (where * would be whatever, but at least group, summary, and
article versions) variable.
So for gnus-summary-menus, I would set to '(sort mark dispose ...)
A value of '1' would just put _all_ the menus in a single 'GNUS' menu in
the main menubar. This approach works really well for Emacs-W3 and VM.

Looks nice. I've added this to the todo list.
