The number of consumers (window manager, menu applets, desktop
environments) is much smaller than the number of providers (in theory
every application).
Shouldn't a menu format be designed to be easy to use for the *larger*
group of application providers? Having a goal to be easy to use on the
window manager side and being less friendly[1] to the larger group seems
to be the wrong design... More so if you take into account that
application maintainers aren't really interested in menus, but people
implementing menu systems are and have to know all the details.

build time and so on.
