Comment:

 I think that it would be better not to declare draft content in the menu
 as "invalid".

 I added a new patch that shows draft items as orange with a new warning.
 They are then filtered out the same way as invalid items, but with a new
 filter function checking that the content is published.

 Customizer support for this approach needs to be added.
