This is a nice addition. Appreciated. The users of some of my apps have differing native languages  
so a simple visual reference is surprisingly useful.

When I was showing this to some people, I sometimes saw double-takes when clicking on the  
icon itself didn’t activate the menu. So, maybe extend the clickable area so that it’s not just the  
text? (This is especially noticeable for horizontal menus).

Thanks again.
