Comment(by ryan):

 Suggesting the following:

  * Show all for hierarchical post types and taxonomies (pages and
 categories). These tend to have less items and are typically what people
 actually want to add to the nav menu.
  * Show most popular for non-hierarchical taxonomies (tags). It is not
 uncommon to have thousands of tags, thus we never show all at once in
 existing UI. We show only the most popular.
  * Show most recent for non-hierarchical post types (posts).  Posts
 usually number in the thousands and can have long titles. Even via an
 asyncronous load we shouldn't pull all of that in.
