To Reproduce

Affected versions: 17.0

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Install web_responsive
2. Create 2x new Menu Items via the Odoo backend. Ensure they don't have an xmlid, and have similar names
3. Perform a search that would include the new menu items

Expected behavior
The searchbar should work, even if a manually-created menu item is present in the system.

Closing as you have created a pull request. If you plan to create the PR, there's no need to put the issue. You can put the issue details into the PR.

No problem, I'll do that in the future. The rationale was: When I hit an issue like this, I often look through the issues (but not PRs) for a similar problem. Having an issue here might help someone else track down the fix.

Well, you should expand your search to pull requests, as most of us directly open the bugfix without reporting isolatedly the issue.

I will do that in the future!
