I did see one response to your menu question, although I realize you are in need of more info. I am not a Backdrop programmer, but I know this forum is relatively new. I have received thoughtful comments to my questions on the forum after a few days.

The Backdrop approach matches my philosophical view, and I very much hope it is successful.
