Comment (by celloexpressions):

 Let's assume it's all in postmeta. Menu items are post objects, so custom
 fields within them should be stored that way just like core ones are. If
 you need to do something more complicated than that, you're probably going
 to need to make some more fundamental changes.

 The plugins linked on #18584 are:
 - https://wordpress.org/plugins/nav-menu-roles/
 - https://wordpress.org/plugins/add-descendants-as-submenu-items/

 The primary thing I'd want to use it for would be to add an option to set
 an image or icon for a menu item. I believe there are several plugins that
 do that. If we have a do_action within the control template, that would
 allow for pretty much anything they may need, then if we have support for
 registering extra fields to be saved in the setting that would be the next
 step for support, as outlined above.
