Experimenting, I turned on compact contextual menu. This seems appropriate for use when setting up a menu system to be used by others, for a specific application. However, I was surprised that there is no pin in the compact menu.

Pondering, I realize that the top entry in the compact menu has a fly-out menu which might conflict somewhat with the 4-headed arrow icon for moving the non-compact menu. But couldn't click-n-drag on the top entry cause motion of the menu anyway, without the 4-headed arrow icon being needed? Or at least click-n-drag on the pin? (if click-n-drag on a menu entry has some other meaning I haven't discovered yet)

My intention is to create a completely customizable menu. With this approach you can add element wherever you want and whenever you want.
With this implementation the full menu and the compact one lose any meaning.
But in the meanwhile we have now full and compact options and hereafter we will have expert mode and basic mode too (more or less entries).

I can add the pin to the compact menu version too but I can do it only when I put my hand on the new implementation of basic and expert mode and it won't be on so early.

Basic and expert sounds interesting, I suppose, although the completely customizable one sounds more interesting. Once that is achieved, I suppose Basic, expert, full, and compact could all just be predefined customizations.

To go with this, another option that would be convenient, in my opinion, would be to have the (compact or non-compact) pinned menu replace show up when at appropriately configured SyMenu first starts. The floating icon can already be disabled. It should be pinned to the configured location, unless that is off-screen, in which case it should be centered or top left, or some such place.
