Using the menu factory makes handling the GIMP's style of keyboard
shortcut easy to implement. (i.e., hit a key combination while
the menu item is selected.) This was the main reason I switched
over to using it in the last release of gsumi. Otherwise, there
probably is no big reason to use it, other than a certain amount of
convenience for big menus, and the ability to borrow code from the
GIMP.
