Indeed, will do.

Will fix comment.

Sure.

OK.

That's the thing, we can pass variables on the Makefile but based on my tests
Kconfig will only interpret them on "mainmenu", but not others. This is why
I kept it embedded completely as part of the program. A template and easy
search / replace should make it nicer to edit for sure, will give that a shot.

I like that idea, the only one that would make sense would be top level then.
Will modify that then.

OK.

In the end wend with a patch since the above doesn't work well as there
is tons of places where the variables are re-used. I will allow for
integration patches then, that will be part of my next respin.
