The "System Tools" menu which is part of the Applications menu displayed by default in our Xfce4 disappears reliably after each appmenu update. Logging out of Xfce4 and loging back again fixes the problem. Until the next appmenu update. Looks like a Xfce4 bug?

This is annoying becuase System Setting is accessible through this menu normally...

It looks to be somehow related to <OnlyUnallocated/> tag in /etc/xdg/menus/xfce-applications.menu. When I remove it, the menu is back, when I add it back, "System Tools" disappear again - until session restart.
But without <OnlyUnallocated/> tag, "System Tools" contain all the entries - also those from VMs.

I have an idea for a workaround using categories, but better get it fixed properly.

@marmarek
garcon: select "System Tools" based on category 
Change selection method of "System Tools", from entries not being
allocated elsewhere, to entries not being related to a VM based on its
category.
Two reasons for this:
1. Usage of '<OnlyUnallocated/>' triggers a bug in xfce menu handling (see #2129)
2. It's more logical, as entry not being placed elsewhere may still be
some VM entry (for example removed by the user manually).

Fixes QubesOS/qubes-issues#2129
