You can do that via the gnome-tweak-tool which can be installed from repos. Google gnome tweak tool for examples. This is of course, if your current version of gnome is supported by gnome tweak tool.
EDIT: If gnome tweak tool can't help, you'll need to look into gconf editor.

gnome-tweek-tool is for Gnome3 only. You may have to install gconf-editor.

I wonder if an e-mail to the Gnome developers would help?
I was looking at apps/panel/global/disabled_applets in configuration editor thinking that's where you would input the right information according to documentation in /usr/share/doc. But the more I think of it, the menu is not part of the panel, or maybe it's an applet in the panel.

Yup Panel Applet. I just ignore Places but find the other stuff useful. It's gone in Gnome 3 anyways.
