If you move the "Options", then I'd vote for "Tools->Options", because
that sounds more reasonable to look for configuration than the "Edit"
menu... (just my opinion)

Maybe the packages should be modified to register their settings in the
"Options" dialog then (the JCF does that afaik).
To prevent something like this maybe a "best practices" guide for IDE
packages should be made (or is there already one?), which could contain
something like "register settings in the Options dialog instead of
creating a custom menu item"
