Maybe. This kind of change is easy to make later, so I'd like to stick to a 
hardcoded menu interface for now. First of all, I must make it perfectly 
working with internationalized text.

No XML, please!

XML is a holy sh*t. Do you know how many pages you must read to understand it 
completely? XML is widely used only because it is a standard, so many 
utilities are provided. XML is bloated, ugly, and space-inefficient. It would 
be interesting to think why CSS2 is not based on XML, even though nearly all 
technologies related to WWW are based on XML nowadays. The designer of CSS2 
must be a sane person.
