I don't like it either. It forces the user to do heavy editing of the menu structure to escape from having to search the menus again and again. For instance, when I look into the "System Settings" menu, I prefer to find _every_ application/utility there. Instead, with Red Hat's menu structure I must search a second menu for more tools. Somebody has earlier proposed a "More" sub-menu, where to move all "Extras" entries. "System settings" > "More" "Internet" > "More" "Graphics" > "More" Much better IMO.
