    <summary>A GtkMenu is a GtkMenuShell that implements a drop down menu.</summary>
    <remarks>
      <para>
      A <see cref="T:Gtk.Menu" /> is a <see cref="T:Gtk.MenuShell" /> that implements a drop down menu consisting of a list of <see cref="T:Gtk.MenuItem" /> objects which can be navigated and activated by the user to perform application functions.
     </para>
      <para>
      It is commonly dropped down by activating a <see cref="T:Gtk.MenuItem" /> in a <see cref="T:Gtk.MenuBar" /> or in another <see cref="T:Gtk.Menu" />, it can also be popped up by activating a <see cref="T:Gtk.OptionMenu" />. Other composite widgets such as the <see cref="T:Gtk.Notebook" /> can pop up a <see cref="T:Gtk.Menu" /> as well.

          <para>
          Applications can use this function to display context-sensitive menus, and will typically supply <see langword="null" /> for the <paramref name="parent_menu_shell" />, <paramref name="parent_menu_item" />, <paramref name="func" /> and <paramref name="data" /> parameters. The default menu positioning function will position the menu at the current mouse cursor position.
         </para>
          <para>
          The <paramref name="button" /> parameter should be the mouse button pressed to initiate the menu popup. If the menu popup was initiated by something other than a mouse button press, such as a mouse button release or a keypress, button should be zero(0).
         </para>
          <para>
          The <paramref name="activate_time" /> parameter should be the time stamp of the event that initiated the popup. If such an event is not available, use <see cref="P:Gtk.Application.CurrentEvent" /> instead.

Instead, by just calling <see cref="P:Gtk.MenuItem.AccelPath" /> on their parent, each menu item of this menu, that contains a label describing its purpose, automatically gets an accel path assigned.
