FWIW, this edge behavior will happen when the last menu entry
 _being displayed_ has a "MENU DISABLE" directive.
 
 This means that if some menu entry in the cfg file has "MENU DISABLE", and
 you happen to add to ALL the menu entries listed after that one a
 "MENU HIDE" directive, then the entry with "MENU DISABLE" will be
 "selectable". In other words, it's about the last entry _actually being
 displayed_ in the resulting menu; not necessarily about the last menu
 entry in the cfg file itself.
