Special Menus removed from new content element wizard if TSconfig menu_type.keepItems = 1,2
100%
Description
I have hidden unwanted options from the menu type of the special menus (css_styled_content – tt_content.menu) via TSconfig in TYPO3 7.6.6:
TCEFORM.tt_content.menu_type.keepItems = 1,2
The options are hidden from the "Menu Type" dropdown as expected, but one side affect is that the content element type "Special Menus" disappears from the "New content element wizard". Tested in Safari and Firefox. See screenshot1.
If item 0 (Menu of selected pages) is kept ...
TCEFORM.tt_content.menu_type.keepItems = 0,1,2
... the content element type reappears. screenshot2.
Workaround: It is possible to use "removeItems" instead of "keepItems" and remove all unwanted options manually:
TCEFORM.tt_content.menu_type.removeItems = 0,3,4,5,6,7,8,categorized_pages,categorized_content
This works as axpected and does not hide the content element type.

You seem to have stumbled upon a difference in the behavior of keepItems and removeItems when a default value gets removed.
As a workaround you can set a new default value for the menu_items like this:
mod.wizards.newContentElement.wizardItems.special.elements.menu.tt_content_defValues.menu_type = 1
The Special Menus content element will be visible again.

Thanks! I didn't knew that "0" is the default by default. Since it is the first entry in the array, it would be preselected automatically in the dropdown, even if there is no default:
mod.wizards.newContentElement.wizardItems.special.elements.menu.tt_content_defValues.menu_type >
Then keepItems works even if "0" ist not in list.
