will investigate this with upstream but strongly suspect this is
similar to other budgie-desktop panel crashes we have observed when
menu options are updated.  This is a known issue upstream.

Thrown a fix for this.

xvt appears to be a new recommendation for apport-gtk.  no idea by
canonical have included this. suspect a bug with xvt with its
presentation of its application icon.

I've thrown a temporary fix for this pending release of the next
upstream version of budgie-desktop.

Cannot reproduce this observation

Its not an alphabetical list of applications (like xubuntu’s whiskers menu) but is a recently used list??.  However, once you launch an application, it it put to the top of the right menu – fine.  But, when you launch the second application, it is not put on the top of the right menu, but as the second item in the list and so on and so forth.  After launch a number of applications, the right menu loses its meaning.

I've opened an upstream issue on GitHub to get a view on this
observation.  Thanks.
