This commit fixes the problem: custom menus were being defined as MENU_CUSTOM_ITEM rather than MENU_CUSTOM_MENU. It also fixes a problem in which custom menus were mistakenly given the MENU_VISIBLE_IN_BREADCRUMB bit when edited. This would cause their titles to show up in the breadcrumb (which is undesirable... only menu items should be in there).
Note that this will not fix any non-functioning custom menus you've defined since this bug appeared. You'll have to delete and recreate them or update the "type" column in the DB manually.
CHANGES
-------
+ Introduced tabs. First, we extended the menu system to support tabs. Next, a tab was added for every link that was (1) an administrative action other than the implicit 'view' (2) relevant to that particular page only. This is illustrated by the fact that all tabs are verbs and that clicking a page's tab leads you to a subpage of that page.
+ Flattened the administration menu. The tabs helped simplify the navigation menu as I could separate 'actions' from 'navigation'. In addition, I removed the 'administer > configuration'-menu, renamed 'blocks' to 'sidebars' which I hope is a bit more descriptive, and made a couple more changes. Earlier, we already renamed 'taxonomy' to 'categorization' and we move 'statistics' under 'logs'.
+ Grouped settings. All settings have been grouped under 'administer > settings'.
TODO
----
+ Update core themes: only Xtemplate default supports tabs and even those look ugly. Need help.
+ Update contributed modules. The menu() hook changed drastically. Updating your code adhere the new menu() function should be 90% of the work. Moreover, ensure that your modue's admin links are still valid and that URLs to node get updated to the new scheme ('node/view/x' -> 'node/x').
administrators will be able to define a custom 403 page, just as they
can define 404 pages now.
This needs to be documented in the "Changes since / migrating to ..."
pages.
configurable! Menu items can be disabled, repositioned, added and
so on.
Upgrading to requires you to run update.php.
This functionality depricates some of the 'navigation modules' in the
contributions repository. Furthermore, modules can now 'suggest'
menu items and site adminstrators can choose to enable them. Modules
in the contributions repository should try to take advantage of this.
