Maybe, I wasn't clear enough, but once again, I have only two .directory 
files.

1: ~/.kde/share/applnk/Settings/.directory, with the content
[Desktop Entry]
Name=
NoDisplay=true

This file was created after I deleted the Settings-Modules in the menu editor

2./opt/kde-cvs/share/applnk/Settings/CDBakeOven/.directory:
[Desktop Entry]
Name=CD Bake Oven
Icon=cdbakeoven
Type=Directory
Hidden=true

Plus I saw that there is a /opt/kde-cvs/share/desktop-directories full of 
*.directory files, which I haven't saw before, and don't know what are they 
for. But I'm sure that you know it. :-)

Now I reinstalled kdelibs/kdebase/kdepim/kdenetwork in a new directory and 
remove the $KDEHOME and still this is the menu order:
Editors
Internet
Settings
System
Utilities
Settings-Modules
PIM
Applications
Home
Help
Find Files

This is what a user gets when installs KDE from CVS HEAD, and it seems to be 
definetely wrong. Good thing is that I can navigate again with the keyboard 
in the menu.
