IMO: Do "auto scrolling" with the menú items, i.e.:
* Initially show only the first (top) N items that fit in the available height.
* If the users selects an item close to the bottom of the menu, scroll
up the menu items, (similar to what happens in buffer auto scrolling)
to show more items at the bottom part.
* Likewise when the user selects an item close to the top of the menu.
Of course I have no idea of the amount of work involved (probably a
fair amount).
