Problem/Motivation

Now that menu links are content entities, it would be nice if we could work with them in views, and perform the same kind of operations with them that are available for taxonomy terms and term references, so we can do things such as:

In Drupal 7, this might have involved using the Taxonomy Menu or Menu to Taxonomy modules (synchronizing a vocabulary to a menu, and any menu links to the relevant term references), but in Drupal 8 this should no longer be necessary.

Some work was also done in the Menu Node Views → module (which is used on 7000+ sites, so there seems to be at least some demand for this).

Proposed resolution

Allow for menu link content entities to work with views, including filters and relationships linking them to nodes.
