I do, too.  The Apple menu is cluttered enough as it is now, not counting the
new "Set Aside" feature.  Giving the applications their own menu makes good
sense, and having the application small icon be the menu name is logical,
though having an "Applications" menu (or something) would be quite acceptable
as well.

So, Apple, are you listening?
