Action(s) menu

["Robin Kelsey" <robinkelsey -at- rogers -dot- com>]

Our software has a drop-down menu button labelled "Actions."

In the first edition of the user manual I called that menu the "Actions
menu," because that is how it is labelled and I didn't want to cause any
confusion; but the fact is that nobody really calls it that in speech - they
call it the "Action menu." (I actually find "Actions menu" kind of hard to
pronounce. It trips up my tongue in the middle.)

For the next edition of the user manual I'd like to start calling that thing
the "Action menu," even though it will still be labelled "Actions." Any
thoughts?

(I guess I could lobby to get it renamed "Action," but I don't really think
that's what I want. It does contain more than one possible action, and so it
should be plural. What I want is for it to be labelled "Actions" and
referred to as the "Action menu.")

Thanks for any input...
