I suppose I could add some explicitly, with :keys.
That makes sense.  Unfortunately, none show up
automatically.  It would be good to somehow fix that.
E.g., `C-h f nonincremental-search-forward':

  nonincremental-search-forward is an interactive compiled Lisp function
  in 'menu-bar.el'.

  It is bound to <menu-bar> <edit> <search> <search-forward>.

  (nonincremental-search-forward &optional STRING BACKWARD)

  Read a string and search for it nonincrementally.
