Does VLC for Desktop do this as well for those kinds of media? In that
case, I'm afraid that then it's not VLC for Android's fault.

Perhaps have the menu title prominently displayed at the top, so:

-Menu
-Title 1
   -Chapter 1
   -Chapter 2
-Title 2
   -Chapter 3
etc.

The bigger problem is that, as you mentioned earlier, there isn't a
really reliable way to detect DVDs menus, so I'm not 100% sure it will
work. It would also be confusing for "Menu" to show up on a MKV or
something.
