I think we are talking distinct objects with this split. Router would
create the 'path' / 'callback' / 'mapping' / 'access' grouping... 

the menu would probably query the router table for access control and
use its own hierarchy to build menu structures (blocks and tabs).

does this sound accurate chx?
