I found some interesting info on the new KDE 4 menu:
“codename “Raptor”.
“Ratpor will be a plasmoid, a Plasma widget, and therefore building upon newest KDE 4 technology which takes care of stuff like resizing. Also there will be a clear separation from data sources and presentation – something which is a basic design principle for all KDE 4 widgets to make widget development easier (for more information see one of Aaron Seigos presentations about Plasma).
“The main goals of Raptor are clear: to provide a high quality menu everyone will like. This includes a intelligent “My Favourite” section (intelligent means really intelligent and not the stuff available today), a skin supported menu (png or svg, colour, layout), fancy effects (”rain in the menu”, whatever that means) and of course searching of all entries – at the moment implemented with strigi (which was mentioned pretty often at akademy – hope it gets even more boost!).”
