Copying it to mouse.el or menu-bar.el makes sense since it will remove
another 'bound-and-true-p' from 'menu-bar-project-menu':

  (defvar project-menu-entry
    `(menu-item "Project" ,(bound-and-true-p menu-bar-project-menu)))

Both mouse.el and menu-bar.el are preloaded.

But the problem is that by its name prefix 'project-'
it belongs to project.el.  Or maybe rename it to
'menu-bar-project-entry'?
