This would allow either syntax unless I'm missing something.
That's another option, yeah. Probably the best so far if we can't just
power through and break the sites in question. It's not yet clear to me
how many sites we're talking about here and how possible it is to
evaneglise them.
In httparchive

:
* 10101 pages use <menuitem>
* 39 have no label attribute
* 0 have non-whitespace content
* 15 have no end tag
Based on this, it seems possible to keep it as a void element and only use
the label attribute.
