This example reflects very well the way Windows is built. As Carlos said, it is convoluted and overly complex. One can feel it, and one can feel that they are afraid of touching any line of code more than 2 years old, because they don't know which could be the side effects. How can they do refactoring this way?

I do not envy any Developer working in Windows in Redmon.

>>Thanks for mentioning the ctl32_shorcut project, (now ctl32_menu). It is virtually dead right now, drowned by Windows and GDI+ bugs, you can read more about it in the link you posted, just updated, the "Windows and GDI+ and more" entry on the page.
