This is still supported.  Normally applications will create the bulk of
their menus using XML, but it's possible to name a particular menu (or
section of a menu) and acquire this object by name.  You can then
dynamically add items.

I think this issue is orthogonal to GMenuModel, and it's one that I
don't have a strong opinion on.  Sorry.
