Public bug reported:

When using Gnome-Unity:

- in Ubuntu 13.04, setting the environment variable UBUNTU_MENUPROXY to any 
value used to bring back the menu at the top of the application window. This 
could be done per application, e.g.
$ UBUNTU_MENUPROXY=1 gedit

- in Ubuntu 14.04 and 15.04, this environment variable is not effective
anymore.

As far as I know, there is no way to restore the classical menus for:
- non root users,
- users who wants to keep this Unity feature for all other applications except 
desired ones,
- applications setting this environment variable in order to ensure their menus 
are still in the window.

As of today, menu-only applications (empty window with menus) are purged
from all menus and result in a 2 pixels-wide window. This has been
working for decades and this is still correctly supported on all other
operating systems and/or window managers.
