Yes! You are trying to put an a table event boxes (or entries???) in
a menu item? What would that mean?
(Do you want a grid menu? That is supported in the GTK+-2.6 API)
The note in the documentation is probably a bit confusing ... "not
useful" here doesn't just mean "doesn't make sense" but also
"won't fully work" ... interactive widgets in general won't work within
a menu.
