Indeed (nit-pick: it's 5-or-more, i.e [1..4] do not warrant a sub-menu,
while [5..∞[ do; but 5 is just arbitrary, we can change that).

And to bike-shed a bit more: collectd does have 5-or-more options, and
even has 5 sub-menus as of today, and thus would get a sub-menu under
this new rule anyway! Hehe! ;-)
