Well, I'm not sure about this one...

The "normal" behavior for the main menu is to keep the highlight bar at the 
center and move the items up and down; this makes sense in the context of its 
"normal" use, with the Av button held down and the user moving the wheel (at 
least, it makes sense to me).

When "Navigate to main" option is active [*], we can week this behavior, or we 
can change it to act as any other page. If we keep the former behavior, it is 
confusing for the user because it does not act like the other pages; if we 
change it, it is confusing because it does not act like it normally acts. 
Obviously, in the first case menu must wrap around; the question is, which one 
is the lesser evil?

[*] In case you didn't notice, you do not need to active "Enter to main" too: 
just press Av from any page in the menu, and release it without moving the 
wheel, to enter the main menu.

I did notice the Av button press to return to the main menu - I really like it 
- thank you very much for this.

Not sure how to answer this issue question either.  It would seem to me... that 
if the user chooses to disable wrap-around menus then ALL menus should NOT wrap 
around, and the same when enabling them.  However I see your point of having 
the main menu always select the center menu choice and scroll the remaining 
menu items in its current form (which is nice).

I can't think of a good compromise without having another user setting for 
"wrap-around main menu": (Enable/Disable) and that just seems silly.  I'll 
think on this one some more...

And thanks for all the great work of recent in code and wiki!

After thinking about this for a while, and not finding a good compromise, I've 
decided to add a comment in the documentation, and consider it "fixed". If 
someone comes up with a solution, I'll reopen the issue. Thanks.
