For normal menus, I would agree.  But the menu there is already very different
than standard KDE menus.  For instance both the Device and Image menus have
elements that are normally associated with the File menu, which doesn't exist
at all.  So the current menu is already very different than standard KDE menus,
and violates KDE conventions on menus.

Further, although Select All is a normal component of Edit menus, none of the
other entries are.  I don't think an Edit menu is the first place people many
will look for "Select New Items", for example (it certainly isn't the first
place I look).

Considering the Edit menu has no actions that actually have anything to do with
editing, and only has elements dealing with selections, I think it is
reasonable doing the same thing you do with the Device and Image menus and give
it a name that reflects the commands it contains.  It is inconsistent with the
other menus in the tool, which are descriptive of the tasks they are used to
accomplish.
