Well, the user may not want to manually browse those long menu entries. To
alleviate this problem, there is already support for text-based search. In
its current implementation, unmatched items gray out. We should consider
removing them to reduce the height of the respective menu.

Other approaches like columns and/or scroll bars do not help here because I
think it is tedious to manually look for an item in a list longer than ...
say 7 items. There was a book/article about that phenomenon... what was
it....

Best,
Marcel
