http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=81215, which was reported
against RH9, points out that vfolders are broken.  I assume vfolders are still
broken and that is why we can not edit menus in FC.  

Ticket #107899 is the current report that menu editing is not working
for FC.  It showes it assigned to Havoc Pennington, but no resolution.  

If there is any progress on fixing the problem, I would be happy to help test
solution.
