Actually this isn't necessarily an issue of very long menus.  If you have a
"short, wide" table which displays only 3 lines at a time (by design) but
has 6 columns, pulling down the visibility menu would incur this same
problem.  A 6-item menu is not too large, but it doesn't fit in this
scenario.  There's no particular reason why the menu shouldn't be allowed to
scroll.  Having an alternate appearance capability for the menu would be a
nice addition, but for now, the visibility menu should provide scrolling
capability.
