I think this calls for a new variable `org-export-after-rendering-hook'
which will operate after the final stage of the export process, in the
export buffer.  Filters are fine but their complexity is not useful here.

Then we could add 'texinfo-all-menus-update to this hook.

Nicolas, what do you think?
