Checked it. Fine.

Can I make a suggestion about the "colored space" right and below menu-items.
I found out (by chance) that clicking on it would create a submenu.
That is awesome!
A text inside the space saying so, would be a nice feature IMO.

Another suggestion: the button that deletes an item: the icon could be
changed to a trashcan (we have at least one icon of a trashcan about
somewhere). I suggest this because the minus-sign to me also suggests
adding a separator (since that means setting caption to '-').

About the "renaming caption to '-' loophole": maybe this should be
forbidden for all cases. If user tries to, then show a message saying:
"use insert separator instead", or something alike.



Overall first impression: very nice improvement (I dons'use docking).
