And why doesn't anyone use MENUVERIFY?  WIth menuverify, you don't have to
mess with the flags.  When you get the MENUVERIFY from intuition, you check
the mouse coordinate to see if it is where you want it.  If you want the menu
functions to continue you just reply to the message.  If you want to cancel
the menu and use just pretend you got a right button, you fill one of the
fields of the reply with a cancel command, and then reply.
