The good thing about using "profile menu" is that it's not spatially oriented. Different siteschemes may place that menu in different locations. I can, for example, imagine a site scheme where create/organize/read/explore is one vertical menu and the "profile menu" is horizontally where it's at on the default site scheme. Or where they're aligned in a row horizontally. Or where it floats on screen as you scroll. All sorts of things a person could do with CSS.
