If you can make the time to attack this, I, for one, would welcome our new menu overlords.

And thinking of GUI & RISC OS idioms, people interested in UI  might find some reading about RISC OS of value.

You could start at
https://www.riscosopen.org/wiki/documentation/show/GUI%20comparison:%20RISC%20OS%20vs%20Windows%20and%20macOS
https://www.riscosopen.org/wiki/documentation/show/Quick%20Guide:%209.%20Saving%20from%20a%20Menu (and follow the 'next' link for the next few pages)
https://sites.google.com/view/nemo20000/filer (the image is a good illustration of the menu tree in action)
https://sites.google.com/view/nemo20000/menustate (shows more clearly the dialogue-at-the-end-of-universe and the writeable-menu-item)

It is my opinion that none of the other OS offerings out there have ever provided menus that are as flexible.
