Comment:

 The reason this doesn't work this way is because the checkbox is really
 just a shortcut for the select controls in the Menu Locations section.
 Could be a nice enhancement, but likely to be very complex in terms of
 implementation. There isn't really a good way to persist the saved state;
 perhaps making the default value of the setting the saved value and
 restoring the default rather than clearing when unchecking a location? But
 would also need to make sure that you can still remove from a location by
 unchecking if you're on the active menu.
