[development] Strange behavior with the menu API

Hi folks, I was messing with the menu API while writing an update routine and stumbled across this: $item = menu_get_item(null,'mypath'); $item['path'] = 'mynewpath'; $ret = menu_save_item($item); $ret == SAVED_NEW I dug into the code and found out that menu_save_item requires the mid, and menu_get_item doesn't return it, although it is totally available... This seems like a major API usability bug, but I imagine there is some reason for it being this way. I guess in 6 this is moot because the whole structure is different in this regard, but is there something I'm missing here? Is this something worth patching (adding the mid to the returned value of menu_get_item() ) in 5? All the best, Jacob
