I Worked on the Windows Start Menu!
UPDATE: This only shipped in the NTSUR release, as far as I can now tell. I've confirmed with team members that I'm not crazy, I did write and we did ship the code I describe in this episode, but it was ultimately replaced circa NT4 with bitmaps!
So they wound up doing exactly what I was trying to avoid (a bitmap per SKU per language) but it works!

As noted in the video, the Start Menu was a Windows95 feature before being ported to what is "Windows" today; Dave was responsible for making it operate and paint under Windows NT/XP/2000 and later.
