re #30 - it works for many windows but not all.  For example thunderbird
still puts its menus up at the top of the screen.

However, doing that edit and using software center to remove all
packages that come up when you search for 'appmenu', which is more than
what is listed at #26 and includes thunderbird-globalmenu, seems to do
the trick (at least, it does for all the things I use).

Incidentally, at #26 - " what we would all like is focus-follows-eye" -
most certainly not.  That's rather the point of FFM - you can readily
have your eyes on one window (the one you're copying out of or referring
to) and your input going to another where you might not be looking at it
as you type.  If you only ever want input going where you're looking,
then click-to-focus-and-raise is surely good enough?

I too think "not the default experience" stinks.  If that's the attitude
why allow anyone any customisation?  Is this not betraying an implicit
assumption that everyone on the planet wants the same eye-candy, speaks
the same language, works the same way, has the same hardware as the
developers?  Why would you possibly want to change anything from how it
installs by default?  Surely it's perfect as it is?

And while I'm ranting (and you've got software center open) removing all
packages with any reference to 'liboverlay-scrollbar' in their title is
a big improvement too...
