Re: Gnome

no it isn't, the only way to add launchers is to place a .desktop file /usr/share/applications.

Re: Gnome

With GNOME 2.10, a new menu system has been introduced, based on the freedesktop.org standards.  It now uses an XML markup to define the hierarchy of the menus and whatnot.  Because of this switch, the old menu editing capabilities have been rendered useless and there will not be a way to edit your menus graphically until 2.12.  Sorry.

Re: Gnome

No, applications/// and whatnot all ALL disabled, by this I mean they no longer work in gnome 2.10.
