    I don't remember all the intricacies of this, but I do remember that it 
    is not always easy to decide what menu item to select.  Imagine something 
    like this menu fragment, for instance:

      * foo: (foo).    Our Foo.
      !
      * bar: (bar).    Your Bar.

    with point at the exclam: which item will you choose?

In this case, it would be good for RET to get an error.
Probably it should take a single menu item to consist
of the * line followed by all successive indented lines,
including blank lines when further indented lines follow
but excluding blank lines that would be at the end of the
menu item.
