Yes, but it doesn't improve the Alacarte situation. Try to make a
launcher under a special menu rubric using it ;) and in addition the
user who prefer GUIs, needs to add a launcher to launch
"exo-desktop-item-edit -c ~/.local/share/applications" first by
herself/himself.

Hm? It does display hidden menu entries too, but to notice which entry
is hidden, you need to look deeper. The Editor is nice, however, to
really customize the Xfce4 menu you can't use a GUI.
