While I don't necessarily agree that emacs' popularity is held back by
to complicated menus, by all means do this.
However, menus are *also* used to explore features. So I would recommend
adding *more* commands to the menu at second or even third level (which
at the moment is shunned, because it's tedious for work, but it's great
for exploring features).
- How about introducing an easy way to add commands to the menu (maybe
via key binding in the minibuffer)?
- How about an extra menu »New in Emacs 23«?
- How about making the toolbar useful by allowing the user to move menu
items onto it?
