[development] menu status

[Peter Wolanin]

$_GET['q'] is not the answer, since you may have additional elements
in the path that are not part of the router path.  I'd suggest instead
that we borrow from the way the menu link is constructed, and put the
un-mapped router path into $item['router_path']- or even into
$item['help_path'].
