For example, we have this Tools menu for KDevelop 
 
  <Menu name="tools"> 
    <text>&amp;Tools</text> 
    <DefineGroup name="tools_operations"/> 
    <Separator/> 
    <DefineGroup name="tools_file_operations"/> 
    <Separator/> 
    <DefineGroup name="tools_language_operations"/> 
    <Separator/> 
    <DefineGroup name="tools_project_operations"/> 
    <Separator/> 
    <Merge/> 
  </Menu> 
 
Tools menu is filled out by Kate part and KDevelop plugins. Everything is ok for 
kate part 
but not for our plugins. 
 
tools_file_operations can be filled by 3 plugins: 
 
Filter plugin: 
  <Menu name="tools" > 
    <Action name="tools_insertshell" group="tools_file_operations"/> 
    <Action name="tools_filtershell" group="tools_file_operations"/> 
  </Menu> 
 
Regexptest plugin: 
  <Menu name="tools" > 
    <Action name="tools_regexptest" group="tools_file_operations"/> 
  </Menu> 
 
Diff plugin: 
  <Menu name="tools" > 
    <Action name="tools_diff" group="tools_file_operations"/> 
  </Menu> 
 
 
The order of loading plugins is unknown. The number of plugins to load is unknown 
too. 
User can disable any of those plugins. 
 
So I can see one problem: 
I can't put the separator in one of those plugins because I don't know which 
would be loaded last. 
That is why I define 
    <DefineGroup name="tools_file_operations"/> 
    <Separator/> 
and expect the separator to appear if there is something loaded into the group. 
 
I've tried a workaround: 
    <DefineGroup name="tools_file_operations"/> 
    <Action name="forced_separator"/> 
But it produces unnecessary separator if no plugin has loaded the menu for 
tools_file_operations group.
