Global Menu Lacks Customizability

Bug description:
To make Unity more accessible, there should be more options for the
global menu. Such as disabling it, or only enabling it for fully
maximized windows.
Here are two user stories with three scenarios:
Pete mostly uses his netbook and really likes the way the global menu
is integrated and saves him the much needed vertical space, but when
he is working at his desktop, he finds himself constantly moving his
mouse to the top of his screen to access the application's menu. Pete
wishes there was a setting that would allow him to turn off the global
menu for non-maximized applications that would still integrate the
menu for applications that are fully maximized.
John on the other hand, is a traditionalist. He most commonly works
with multiple terminals and finds that the global menu just gets in
his way. He also dislikes how the menu becomes hidden by default.
Currently, the first thing he does after a fresh install, is remove
the 'indicator-appmenu' package in order to completely remove the
global menu from his install. John wishes there was a way to simply
disable the global menu without having to remove a system package that
could potentially cause a dependency issue later down the road.
