On thinking more carefully about my request that you support user-added menus , I've realized that there's only one part of that feature that's really crucial; all the rest is just "nice to have."

The crucial feature is the ability to have a user-produced or user-provided document that can contain links to other documents. Selecting one of those links would open the other document (in the appropriate reader) as though it had been selected from a device menu.

All the rest of what I asked for (menu-wise) can be built by end-users from that building block alone.
