Re: changes in e2 and quantal

 

It's fairly common in English to write menu bar as two words, even as other
bars (side, tool) are frequently written as a single word.

I don't think our manual should change spelling conventions for the sake of
consistency. English is not a consistent language, generally, anyways.
