Comment (by hamish):

 > Is there some reason why they should be stripped out?

 yes, the menudata.py "commands" option is used to generate a list of all
 modules and their menu position in a flat ascii file for later parsing by
 the module_synopsis script. the resulting PDF and html synopses, and
 furutre module man page menu location text if full of meaningless "&"s if
 they aren't stripped out.

 menudata.py's `__PrintCommandsItems` seems the most obvious place to do it
 (as close to the source of the problem as possible), unless there are any
 i18n needs etc. wheich require them to stay.
