Good point. I remember seeing something about that, but didn't pay attention at the time. My menu handling is a straight rip from kiwidudes code. But, I took it some time ago, so I'll have a look at any changes he has made.

I just checked and I added a help menu item just before release and a reference to that isn't kept.

Actually, I don't see where in InterfaceAction.create_menu_action() the reference is saved. It returns a reference which I have been keeping. Except for that one new one.
