OK by me. =20

But in the abstract, I'd still like to leave open the  possibility
of users adding their own custom menu icons with bound actions.=20
As I envision it, the system would work similarly to the
existing 'bind' command.  E.g. instead of binding to a key, you'd
be binding to a menu button:

    bind icon "paintbox.png" \
	action "load 'linestyles'; set style incr user; replot"

(that doesn't quite work for other reasons, but you get the idea)
