 I would like to be able to pass query variables through the admin menu
 functions. For instance, I have multiple "entities" that can all be
 managed from the same form. However, there is no way to specify
 "entity=type" in the query for the menu page. So, I have to create a
 separate PHP file for each "entity", that in turn includes the "edit-
 entity.php" file along with a variable specifying which "entity" type it
 is. This would be easily achieved with a query value of the "entity" type.
 The new WordPress taxonomy system works this way. Let's support it for
 plugins too.
