 After removing the nav_menus panel in the Customizer, all custom panels
 are rendered above the Active theme section regardless of the priority a
 custom panel has been allocated.

 $wp_customize->remove_panel( 'nav_menus' ) also generates the php error
 "Trying to get property of non-object in /wp-includes/class-wp-customize-
 nav-menus.php on line 340"

 Example code:


 {{{
 function custom_customize_register( $wp_customize ) {

         $wp_customize->remove_panel( 'nav_menus' );

         $wp_customize->remove_panel( 'widgets' ); // Works perfectly.

         $wp_customize->add_panel( 'contact_details', array(
                 'title'         => __( 'Contact Details' ),
                 'priority'      => 200,
         ) );

         $wp_customize->add_section( 'address_details', array(
                 'title'         => __( 'Address Details' ),
                 'panel'         => 'contact_details',
         ) );

         $wp_customize->add_setting( 'phone_number', array(
                 'type'          => 'option',
         ) );

         $wp_customize->add_control( 'phone_number', array(
                 'label'         => __( 'Phone Number' ),
                 'section'       => 'address_details',
         ) );

 }
 add_action( 'customize_register', 'custom_customize_register', 1000 );
 }}}
