Comment (by lessbloat):

 I've been thinking about the proposed new layout over the weekend, and the
 one think that still bugs me is the "Menus within your theme" meta box.
 It still seems out of place.  I mocked up an alternative approach, and
 wanted to get your take:

 What if we removed the "Menus within your theme" meta box from the manage
 screen.

 And put it at the top of "Screen Options":

 Then the "default menu for your theme" link in the "Save Menu" success
 message would simply slide down "Screen Options" when clicked.

 We of course would user test this approach to find out if it actually
 works for users.

 Thoughts?
