Guess so. We've been living without non-monospaced fonts support for
quite a while, though, so that wouldn't be much of a problem, if the
menus solved at least some other problems.

Doesn't any overlay's `display' get priority over text's `display'?
If I want to get priority over "maybe other things", the first problem
would how to know the list of all those things, and to retrieve the text
that gets displayed in stead of each of those things. Which would be,
again, reimplementing the display engine.
