The node says this:
To define a real menu item which can be selected, the extended format
binding looks like this:
(menu-item ITEM-NAME REAL-BINDING
. ITEM-PROPERTY-LIST)
Here, ITEM-NAME is an expression which evaluates to the menu item
string. Thus, the string need not be a constant. The third element,
REAL-BINDING, is the command to execute. The tail of the list,
ITEM-PROPERTY-LIST, has the form of a property list which contains
other information.
When an equivalent keyboard key binding is cached, the extended menu
item binding looks like this:
(menu-item ITEM-NAME REAL-BINDING (KEY-BINDING-DATA)
. ITEM-PROPERTY-LIST)
There is no description (anywhere) of KEY-BINDING-DATA - no explanation
of what it looks like or what it means/does. IOW, this information about
cached bindings is incomplete and incomprehensible.
The same problem exists for node `Simple Menu Items'.

Luckily this cache is not used any more. So we should simply get rid of
this KEY-BINDING-DATA thingy.

I've just removed it from the trunk.
