I looked at these and the are great! I've been using the DE agnostic menus in Cinnamon since they were first announced on this list.
You mentioned the "extra applications" issue and the decision (which I agree with) to avoid making software-center a dependency. There are additional reasons not to depend on USC: One of them is that it is reported to be very difficult to install in Mint, into which people might want to install US metas. All Ubuntustudio packages are accessable from Synaptic in Mint, as it uses Ubuntu repos. The other reason is that folks who do not want support for paid software in their machines (myself included) often remove software-center and install Synaptic.
