What would be the proper way of setting up environment settings like PATH
or any custom one? I have a quick and dirty method of appending lines to
/etc/profile.

Can you give me a simple example of how the menu file should look? Any
naming conventions or will it just process any file in /usr/lib/menu? And
after all the above is set then all I have to call is update-menus and it
will start processing?
