   $menu[item]             = array('title' => 'root page', 
                                                 'callback' =>'root_page');
   $menu['node'][item] = array('title' => 'listing',
                                                'callback' =>'node_listing');
   $menu['node']['add']['blog']['here'][item] 
                                   = array('title' =>'blog entry',
                                   'callback' => 'some_func' );
   $menu['node']['add'][item] 
                                   = array('title' => 'create content',
                                                'callback' => 'node_page');


 $menu['node'][item] would replace your current 'path' => 'node/item'

Is the part to look at, The other part is, afaik only to show how easy it is 
to handle the menus in the rest of the code, not in your code!

Alternatively, Adrian, if people really do not like this new idea of your (I 
like it), an option would be to add extra logic in core that first iterates 
over all menus, and creates your multidim. arrays from the 'path/to' 
variables?
