Sorry, Thomas... may be I used a not clear naming convention: application
menu is the drop down menu near activities.
For normal application, you just find "Quit" entry. For native gnome apps
you find some entries, I think that it's confusing because:
1. It's not the only "menu": for example Files app (nautilus) has "New
Window", "Connect to Server", "Bookmarks", "Preferences", etc. But in Files
you have even drop down menu in the title bar button. So what is the logic?
what should I find in the application menu? Each application distributes
function in free form. it's misleading!
2. It's far from the window: if you have many window on the desktop: you
should pay attention which window has the focus, because the application
menu refer to that window!
3. It's hidden!!! Since only few application has it (just native gnome
app): you have to remember to look at it to find what you miss...
4. It's terrible! Did I already say it? :-)
"win key + search" is one of my favorite capabilities!
