Include Dictionary and Log File Viewer in menus on Ubuntu Netbook Edition

I find it strange that in the "GNOME" session, the Dictionary and Log File Viewer are available in the menus, but not in the "Ubuntu Netbook Edition" session.

Solution #1:
Have Dictionary and Log File Viewer in Ubuntu Netbook Edition session by default
Written by

Why have them in the "GNOME" session by default but not in the "Ubuntu Netbook Edition" by default?
I know you can add these items manually by clicking:
System > (Preferences area) > Main Menu
but it seems a pain to have to do that.
The Log File Viewer can help users troubleshoot problems e.g. in forums when requests are made for the contents of certain log files.
The Dictionary is useful when you are working on something and need to check the meaning of a word.
I personally think these 2 crucial tools should be included in the menus in the "Ubuntu Netbook Edition" session by default instead of being manually added by the user.
