This part would be nice to see in our DE's.
This enhancement would be nice, but I'm sure you'll agree it's in no way comparable to having sane menus in the first place. It's great the first time you install something but what about an application you use only once in a great while? The second time you need it the highlighting will be long gone, and yet you can't remember where in the heck that program went to! Also, Windows has it's own fair share of programs whose names are not very evocative. If it wasn't one of the most well-known programs in the world would you guess that "Quicken" was a program for handling your finances?
