Sure, but that assume the window manager provides some level of functionality, else you get stuck in a non-functionnal environment, which happen with metacity. Do you insist that metacity should provide a menu file ? Do you have use case ? In that case, add sessionmanager="no" to the metacity menu file and I will change menu-xdg to handle sessionmanager, but personally I do not find the metacity menu file useful.
