Menus like those (File, Edit etc.) are *not* going away. The application menu is for application global stuff like opening the preferences dialog (not something that you do regularly). The purpose is not to move the menus to a top bar like done in OSX or Unity. The idea is to move stuff that is not related to the specific window (but affects the whole application) to a common place. > 2.
