May I ask why you would need dynamically created links?

'user' in this case means the administrator.
ie: A mod uses a portion of the information entered by the user for the navbar link, say the 'title' portion of the user entry. In order to create the navbar link in the community menu, that 'title' must be also be saved in the phrase table of vB. And then the additional navbar link must be created in the navigation table. Along with that a $show variable must be created in a plugin if the member has permission to view that link.
Now because different 'titles' can have different permissions, there has to be a different $show for each menu item.
That seems like a lot to go through for something that use to take a one line piece of code to throw the menu selection in the community menu in earlier versions.
