Adding Customizable Menu to non-journal "frontpage" pages

Title:
Adding Customizable Menu to non-journal "frontpage" pages

Area:
Links: Celerity sidebar, Troposphere... dropdown?

Summary:
Add a section of the menus in the secondary pages (comment pages, the suggest.bml page, etc.) that is customizable by the user the way that their journal appearance is.

Description:
I was egged on by Cesy. O:> We'd love to have a section of the menus (Celerity for me, presumably Troposphere for Cesy) that we could put various links on. E.g., Memories, this Suggest An Improvement page, a LJ page, our favorite webcomics... whatever we might want to refer to while writing a response to someone's post or comment, basically, and don't want to have to go navigate back to the front page of our journals to find. A half-dozen links would probably make me pretty happy.

Downside: requires adding a customizable menu (module?) to however many schemes/styles/whatever these are -- or at least a few of them.

Upside: no one bugs you about putting *their* favorite DW-related link into the default menu, for a good long time! O:>

Possible Upside: if you find a way to track what people put in their customizable menu, and find that a substantial number of them use X link, you can consider putting X link into the default ones, too.

Thanks!
