It was a hassle to maintain BonoboUI and GtkUIManager wrappers to
the menu/toolbar actions.  For the more advanced actions (combos of
various types) the bonobo wrappers were a significant burden to
maintain.   It would not be impossible to restore, but it would be
alot of work.   There are alot of custom action types in gnumeric.
