	I haven't quite figured out whats going on here yet. There are a number
of options:

 1) We check and re-read the menu on click

 2) The menu has been swapped out by that stage

 3) Destroying the GTK+ menu takes a long time (this was a problem at 
    one point with GTK+ 2.3.x, but that got fixed)

	It needs profiling.

Cheers,
Mark.
