 As far as I remember we couldn't create a top level menu to host the new
 privacy tools because we couldn't add new files in a minor releases.

 We 'took over' `privacy.php` though so that opens a door to make simple
 changes in case we could go for it from this release so we have everything
 grouped up.

 Having the new `Privacy Tools` under `Tools` in general feels somewhat
 off, as people might get confused from double Export menus etc.

 This patch creates a new top-level menu called Privacy ( I thought that
 the visibility icon would be appropriate for this ).

 I currently have it as `$menu[73]` in the patch as I'm not sure if I could
 just bump everything +5 so I pushed it between Users and Tools.

 This creates a more clear view of what all these new tools and screens are
 about.
