I think it's ok for Emacs to do something different.  For example, there
might be some single submenu under tools with some options there to turn
various subsets of CEDET on or off, calling them things like
"completion" or "projects" or some-such.

The current way CEDET does setup is too focused on the individual tools
and goofy names therein.  If I can ever get this cedet 1.0 thing
"donish", that was one of many things on my future todo list.
