What's the easiest way to edit one's local and global menu items in Gnome? It appears the default Gnome distributed with FC3 doesn't have any of the direct menu-editing functionality compiled in. I've been able to modify my menu somewhat as root, by editing the files in /usr/share/applications, but this is horribly obscure and unintuitive. Is there a better way?

It depends what exactly you want to do. If you want to delete items from the menu or add new items, then its /etc/xdg/menus/applications.menu you want to edit.
GNOME 2.12 will include a menu editor.
