I tried to play a little bit with menus. Reading the example in "(elisp) 
Menu Bar" it looked to me like I could do something like

  (defconst bw-keymap (make-sparse-keymap "Window Resizing")
    "Keymap used by `bw-window-resize-mode'.")
  (define-key bw-keymap [menu-bar bw] (cons "Resize" (make-sparse-keymap 
"Resize")))
  (define-key bw-keymap [menubar bw balance] '("Balance Windows" . 
bw-balance))

However that did not give the expected result. Indeed "Resize" was added 
to the menubar, but opening that menu item just should two items in 
bold, both saying "Resize".

Did I misread the documentation?

1 - you don't use the bw-keymap variable.
2 - there's a typo: "menubar" vs "menu-bar"

I should have said that it an entry for it is added to 
emulation-mode-map-alists .

Thanks ;-)    It works now.
