The worst is the new Kmenu.
At least there should be a choice to select between the old traditional Kmenu and the new one.
Agreed, it's totally crap and I can't imagine what the developers were thinking when they designed it.
The good news is, you can right-click on it and choose the old menu. Slightly cut-down, unfortunately, without the option to show recently-used or most-used items. But still far better than the new mess.
