Bug Description
When a user attempts to edit the application menu in Xubuntu he or she cannot add items to most of the sub-menus in that application menu. Each newly added item is instead added to the other menu, reguardless of which menu the user had selected when they added the new item. It appears there's no way to move items to a sub-menu that is not Other through the menu editor.
Step to reproduce:
1. Right-click the applications menu.
2. Select properties
3. Under the "Menu File" section, confirm that the "default menu" radio button is selected.
4. Click the Edit Menu button.
5. Select a sub-menu (such as "Accessories") that is not "Other"
6. Click the "New Item" Button
7. Enter a program and program name, such as "xeyes".
8. Click "OK"
9. (Notice that the program has not appeared in the selected sub-menu)
10. Select the "Other" sub-menu
11. (Notice that the program you just added has appeared in this sub-menu. You may have to scroll to find it)
