No! That's the wrong thing to do!
"Mike & Tracy Holt", you're on this list since a long time now, I'm quite
surprised that you yet did not realize that we're using the menu-system
from Debian, which is WM independant.
Therefore, you have to edit the entries of the menu-system, no WM-specific
menus, or else your changes will be lost at the next update of the menu
system.
Either edit/add some files in /usr/lib/menu/ (documentation in
/usr/share/doc/menu*) or use the newly released beta menu editor called
DrakeMenu appearing in Cooker right now.
