Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] Plugins, stat menus, and 1.8.0

I've developed a plugin for my companies protocols. The plugin includes a tap and 11 statistics trees, created via stats_tree_register(). Under 1.6.8 and earlier, these statistics items appear in the Statistics menu, as expected.

I recompiled the plugin for 1.8.0. Clean compile, no errors on loading. However, the menu items no longer appear. No errors, but no menu items.

I know the GUI stuff changed between 1.6.8 and 1.8.0. Are stats menu items registered via stats_tree_register() no longer supported for plugins? If they are supposed to be supported, where should I start looking for the potential problem?
