Separator menu items
A menu item whose

The following XML creates three menu items, Top, Middle, and Bottom, with separators
between them:
<menu>
<menuitem label="Top" />
<menuitem type="separator" />
<menuitem label="Middle" />
<menuitem type="separator" />
<menuitem label="Bottom" />
</menu>
All separator items are disabled. Clicking on or rolling over a separator has no effect.
