edubuntu-menu-admin settings have no effect

[Ken Sharp]

Instructions from the QA testing:

Open the Activities Overview and type "Edubuntu Menu Administration"
    The main window will come up with some pre-selected items.
Choose an item or items to remove from the application overview.
    REMEMBER THIS/THESE ITEM(S)!
Click "Apply (Password Required)", enter your password.
Click "Close".
Go to Settings
    Go to Users. Unlock. Enter your password.
    Add a user. Make sure this user is not an administrator. Set a password. Click "Add".
Log Out
Log in as this new user
Verify that items selected in Edubuntu Menu Administration are NOT shown in the Applications Overview

This fails.

I tried removing the Ask Ubuntu and Edubuntu Install shortcuts from the menu for a new, unprivileged, user "test" and it made no difference: both are still there. I also tried adding Atomix and BASIC256 but they don't appear on test's menu.
