If by b) you mean to push the menu binding to the very end, where it
will probably not seen at all, then I don't think that could be the
default, either.  Just changing the order, so that non-menu bindings
are shown first, is okay, I think.  But banishing that to after the
version where the command was introduced doesn't sound like something
I could agree to by default.
