It doesn't. This buffer is created by lexer in my example.
And menu is always stored unparsed and parsed only just before

I see 2 approaches:
1) Parse menu commands right before executing
2) Parse them directly and reparse after editing.
I think 1st one is cleaner because the parser will be at the same place 
after editing or before

I think also. Because theese modifications are lost after boot they are 
generally modified only to boot one time an OS with specifical 
parameters and you don't need scripts for this.
