The current behavior is that if a menu item is disabled BY THE DISTRIBUTION
PACKAGER OR SITE INSTALLATION SYSADMIN, then the menu item is hidden in LO,
not grey'out out.  Its not a question of what the user wants, its a question
of what the distribution packager or site administrator is trying to
accomplish.
