Description
Shouldn't taxonomies have a show_in_menu option for taxonomies as well. Of course, this would be the same as custom post types affecting the registration and the $parent_file.
The original attachment has the parent file logic via the filter, 'parent_file'.

Sad that this has missed the boat. Was on my plan for [21948].

Created #25150 for the is_null() and doc fixes from 20930.diff.
Will do a refresh if it's in.

Now the "show_in_menu" works differently than "show_in_menu" in register_post_type. I don't see a reason why.
In register_post_type one can set "show_in_menu" as a string so that it appears in certain admin menu. With register_taxonomy it's not possible to relocate menu item.

Replying to ciantic:

Taxonomy is tied to an object type, so I guess relocating it make less sense than relocating a post type item.
However, I've just noticed that the parameter description is inaccurate, see #27943.
Yes. I think you should be able to show the menu and hide the metabox.
show_in_ui would set both to true, but you can set show_in_ui to false and show_in_menu to true to get the desired result and behavior you get with register_post_type
+1 for making this happen.
