IMVHO Global Menu is needed mainly to invite people to forget menu as a GUI
element because on touch-only systems menu are awkward and the benefit of
save vertical space is only a side effect, the same for the drawback of more
mouse move on traditional systems... So Global Menu have to stay here not
only for maximized windows, and have to be hidden like now.
However I would like to have an UBUNTU_MENUPROXY per application: GiMP is
almost unusable with global menu, gVim or Firefox or Nautilus are ok, Libre
Office so-so, etc... Other problem is sloppy focus as stated by Florian
Diesch.
Mybe Unity really need a CCSM-like settings app with many options!
A possible solution for this problem can be a panel/notebook like:
+-----------------------------+
| Global Menu settings |
+-----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------+
| Enter applications you want with the global menù DISABLED: |
|
|
| [ ComboBoxEntry for new app, enter to add ] [addButton] |
|
|
| TreeView/QTableWidget with selected applications, |
| right-click->remove or select+canc to remove |
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Sorry for my bed English :-)
