Summary:                    xfdesktop should update menu when new software are installed
Description: 
xfdesktop handles changes made in the main menu file but do not take care
of sub-files, like /etc/X11/xfce4/menudefs.hook
in the debian distribution.

Well, you are right, of course, but current implementation does not permit
this. I am aware of the problem and will try to incorporate it in the next
version of the menu. It has no priority now.

A menu-spec compliant menu implementation would eliminate the need for
monitoring the debian menu (hopefully). Nevertheless, this would be useful
to have. 4.2 material probably.
