Bug 454028 suggested improving/fixing cascading menus which originally (Windows 95) had option to cascade all entries to more columns, so are fastest list-based menu. Being forced to scroll in only one column can occasionally be so slow I give up. Here's an example of a superior cascading menu KDE already has (Dolphin. Kicker isn't superior and Kickoff is a degeneration of Kicker, forcing scrolling even in the cases of some lists that would entirely fit on the screen in one column.)


Here you can almost see how it worked in Windows 95 (the second-level menu ran over into a second column, though covered-up by 'accessories' column.)


The above two might disappear later, but I can re-upload or you can search.
        I don't know or care about new fad scrolling-only menus, but if you prefer superior original cascading menus, please ask for this improvement/fix. I can get better start menus in Windows 3 & 95/98 (9n, in fact use both Windows 3 & 95 types in 9n) than KDE, and that's sad, because now some youth idolize 1990s like I then idolized 1960s, but no modern GUI even has complete superior 1990s-style menus.

Here you can see Windows 3 program groups.


Apparently Windows 3 inspired CDE which inspired KDE, but KDE doesn't have program groups (might've in B1) which was the most productive menu format for me. I know KDE's latest menu type is similar in showing many programs not just as one-dimensional lists. but a two-dimensional layout, but is an entire new screen rather than program group windows, so I don't like that new menu either.
