Pull Request for Issue #9911
Menu items of type alias, separator, url or heading should not be presented as possible association when editing a menu item.
To test, create a simple multilanguage site (2 languages are enough), enable associations. Create menus in 2 languages, in each of them create menu items to usual contents, switch to the Associations tab and try to associate them to a menu in the other language. All menu items, including alias, separator, url or heading can be chosen in the list.
After patch, you will not be able anymore.
you will get for example:
Also this patch does not display the Associations tab for the same menu items (after saving the menu item):

successfully on 65be5f8
Tested succesfully: After applying the patch, it is no longer possible to associate with Menu-item Alias. Also, Menu-item Alias does not show an option to Associate with nything else, the tab is gone.

I tested this successfully.
I can confirm that on the associations combo all system links menu items are shown in gray and cannot be selected, with the exception of menu alias that do not appear at all (correct).
I can also confirm that the associations tab does not appear in any of these items anymore.

An improvement would be to display or not the Associations tab on the fly after choosing a menu item type. Over my head
