Just while we're on the topic of menus, what's the recommended place for
putting submenus?  I had assumed that the Plugins menu would be the most
natural area for plugin submenus, and vaguely recall a thread a few
months ago on the topic indicating that this would be a logical choice.
~ The only outstanding problem was that plugins weren't executed on the
plugins page, but that was addressed.

At the moment, I've been putting submenus on the plugins page because I
like the menu appearing immediately after a plugin is activated, but if
there's a general consensus for a better place (Options perhaps?) it's
no problem to change for the sake of a consistent user interface.  At
the moment there is an add_management_page and an add_options_page
function, but no add_plugins_page function, which could be an
indication?  Did I just answer my own question?

Cheers,

Jamie.
