Improvements to menu in window

Modified:
     libs/gui/trunk/ChangeLog
     libs/gui/trunk/Source/GSThemeMenu.m

This patch looks like just another one in the long list of horrible changes to support in-window menus. Not that this patch helps in any way, it just keeps the impression that in-window menus are working up a bit more. If I understand it correctly, this patch is trying to replace the Windows sub menu whenever the menu gets set again on a window. What is the point of this? All the other menu and sub menu entries might just change as much as the Windows sub menu. Why add any special handling here? If you are really interested in in-window menus, which I am not, then you should start to look for real solutions, which would be the decoupling of NSMenu and NSMenuView, and not just add another layer of hacks to the code.

Why can't the people interested in in-window menus form a special interest group. Discuss possible solutions and then come back with a proper proposal to implement this, instead of making random changes to the gui classes?

Sorry, I know this isn't a polite way of putting this, but the in-window menu code has annoyed me a lot already and I really regret adding that possibility at all into gui. As I stated before, I am even willing to help to develop a concept here. What I don't want to do is maintain all these hacks in gui.
