Summary: menus with bitmaps cannot be changed (yet?)

Initial Comment:

Short description :
The menu labels for Undo/Redo can be updated at runtime to reflect the command to be redone/undone. Putting a bitmap on these menu items will render them as OwnerDrawn, but wxOwnerDrawn::OnMeasureItem() is *only* called at the Init() stage. Thus the modified menu item width is not taken into account and the menu item appears mangled/truncated.

Problem reported in this thread :
http://lists.wxwidgets.org/cgi-bin/ezmlm-cgi?8:mss:96813:200701:mcfcoihbidcgacjlhpkg

It's a limitation rather than a bug, and my limited win32 skills prevent me to find a workaround :-(

Help!
Sylvain
