Agreed on this point, but I am with FengShu regarding a babel menu. I likely would not use it that often (I know the shortcuts relevant to me right now), but 1) it would advertise the babel functionality a little bit more if it is shown in the org menu 2) for a beginner, it would be much easier to use org-babel if commands like execute source block or section, tangle, un-tangle, ... would be in the menu. So I would see it as a useful way of promoting babel (and therefore org-mode) and also as a nice reminder of less frequently (but nevertheless usefull) functionality.
