Description
It was mentioned at [1] that is doesn't really make sense the user has to remember to add the new box himself to a region.
It would be easier if there was a select box to optionally add the new menu's block to a region - at least in the default front-end theme with weight 0. It wouldn't "blow up" the page much and it would be easier for the user because drupal does the job itself then.

This is a better fix to the issue and solution discussed here; http://drupal.org/node/202858
To clarify, this block-region relationship would be set on admin/build/menu/add and admin/build/menu-customize/menu-MENUNAME/edit
This dual-location-for-settings technique has been discussed and consensus on it's approval has been reached in the development mailing list http://lists.drupal.org/archives/development/2008-01/msg00011.html
