I am trying to keep some compatibility between the web pages and mhttpd. I think in most cases, old mhttpd should continue to work
against new web pages (assuming matching mhttpd.js & co). But old web pages would probably break against new mhttpd, mostly due
to the rapid pace of their development.

Anyhow, the midas web page forms menu buttons in this order:
/Experiment/Menu, if it does not exist, then:
/Experiment/menu buttons, if it does not exist, then
built in list of menu buttons, which includes all possible buttons, hardcoded in mhttpd.js.

In cooperation with mhttpd: new mhttpd
- will automatically create the tree /experiment/menu with all buttons disabled
- will complain about the existence of /expriment/menu buttons, instruct user to delete it.

So to answer the question:
after git pull, make, restart mhttpd, you will see all possible menu buttons and you will have to go
into the odb editor to disable the buttons you do not want to see (i.e. the mscb button).

I did it this way on purpose, to give old-time midas users an opportunity to discover
some of the newly added buttons and pages, like the "chat" page, or the "example" page. If I migrated
the existing "menu buttons" verbatim, to the new tree, I would not even today know
that the "chat" page exists (I do not think it was ever announced or described on this forum
or anywhere in the documentation).
