The actions that are being made conditionally shouldn't be a problem. If the 
action doesn't exist XMLGUI will not do anything with it either. So I think 
the part 68-198 should be mostly left as is.

Most of 237-452 involves checking if an action exist and then plugging it in. 
XMLGUI will do this checking automatically. It will never plug an action that 
doesn't exist. You may run into problems with sub-menus that do not have any 
actions in them. I don't know if XMLGUI is smart enough to hide the whole 
submenu in such case.

If you can manage to leave 68-198 mostly untouched (I don't think you need to 
change anything there, do you?) then you should be able to basically replace 
237-452 with the XMLGUI stuff. At that point I guess we need to look how well 
XMLGUI behaves with submenus and such.

Cheers,
Waldo
