> This listener is added on `MenuBarButton.getItems()` and not on `Menu.getItems()`.  This `MenuBarButton` is created by `MenuBarSkin` to show a `Menu`. This `MenuBarButton` gets disposed when the related `Menu` is removed from scenegraph, and so the added `ListChangeListener` gets GCed. Hence it is not required to explicitly remove the listener.
