Yep, I was staring right at it and I *still* didn't see it. I think
this must be like trying to find your own spelling errors. Once you
overlook something that's right in front of your eyes, your brain
tells you it's not there.

I learned Squeak by playing with it, and I suspect this is one of
the things that I did not understand early on, so I just started
overlooking it. Later when I wanted to find it, I did not "see" it
in the menus. So there is nothing wrong with the menus here, just
my dysfunctional brain ;)
