It is not recomended to use Menulibre as it will not allow your user to
see menu updates such as a fix for this problem. So far as I know
Menulibre also uses the stock xfce *menu file which is broken and not used
in ubuntustudio. XFCE are not interested in fixing this file and have
marked it as not a bug.

They are hidden because they do not work. They are installed if we want
them or not by the ImageMagick package which is a depend of another
package we do want. But the menu entrys don't work so we have hidden them
so as not to break package upgrading.
