Managed to play around with this last night, and I've got to say.. it's slick, fast and a great fresh new look...
As this is going to be Kodi's default skin as of Kodi 17, I think a few other main menu presets ( Kids, Sport, Adult ) which can be enabled in the settings would alleviate the need for the ability to customise menus, at least on initial lauch of Kodi 17. Just my thoughts anyway.. keep up the great work.

Keep in mind that this is the default skin and majority of people who will be using that don't (yet) have the need to customize the main menu.
As always, if you are a power user and want more control over look and feel, there are a dozen other skins to choose from.
Besides that I am sure someone will mod a customizable menu into Estuary at some point.
And as phil65 already mentioned, if the team can find a sane way of adding a customisable menu, Estuary will be the first to have it.

Any chance of an "In progress TV shows" button on the TV shows submenu?
The widget only shows the most recent 10, and the path to get to the node is a little long/non-intuitive (either go down to Videos and across to the Library root, or go to the Library root in the TV Shows menu and then press back to go up a level.)
Alternatively, any chance to remove the limit on the widget, or is that performance-related?

Piers i think you and the rest involved have done a wonderful job the most important thing is to just maintain it and keep it fresh let new stuff come as the skin progresses the thing people forget is exactly as you put it before fast and compatible with multiple devices this something that is not easily done since there are so many devices out there.
for once im proud to be using the default skin of Kodi

I think that the customization menu can be made dependent on the settings level.
Standard level->just like now
Expert level ->skin shortcuts script
