    <summary>A widget used for items in menus.</summary>
    <remarks>
      <para>The <see cref="T:Gtk.MenuItem" /> and derived widgets are the only valid children for menus. Their function is to correctly handle highlighting, alignment, events and submenus.</para>
      <example>
        <code lang="C#">
               MenuBar mb = new MenuBar ();
               Menu file_menu = new Menu ();
               MenuItem exit_item = new MenuItem("Exit");
               file_menu.Append (exit_item);
               MenuItem file_item = new MenuItem("File");
