The phrasing gives the impression that menu items did not persist before. That is not correct. There were only some cases where it disappeared, notably when an extension was reloaded or the browser was updated. Can this be phrased better? If it is too edge-casey, consider leaving it off entirely and rely on the release notes instead.

@Rob--W I'd be inclined not to add anything here. Not only is it perhaps rather edge-casey, it's also a bit imprecise, e.g., "more reliable" sounds like there are still cases where it might fail.

Given the last two comments, it sounds like we should close this PR. Is that correct, @rebloor?

@dotproto indeed, that would seem like the way to go.
