[Greasemonkey] Greasemonkey 0.6.6

[esquifit]

Hi

first of all, many thanks for the update.

Not sure whether this is the right time to ask for it, but given that
you are making changes in the UI, I dare to give my opinion about one
point that I've always perceived as annoying: GM demands too much real
state from the "tools" menu.  In my view it should take no more than a
single entry.  The current entries might be reallocated into a submenu
or somehow integrated into the statusbar icon menu/s.

I think the typical GM user is something of a hacker in miniature; it
is highly probable that s/he would have a bunch of extensions
installed, and all they (the extensions) tend to abuse the tools menu.
 Although there are ways to take control over what is displayed on it,
it would be better if extensions authors limited its use to the very
essential.

cheers
