Well, except that they did *one* thing better than apple: In a
multi-monitor setup the global menu is on the same screen as the window
to which it relates. That's brilliant. (disclaimer: i haven't put a
second monitor on my linux box since before my upgrade to precise, so I
hope they haven't destroyed that functionality while I wasn't looking)

Really, guys, all we want is the damn menu for the active window to stay
visible. You probably want to position it to the right of the
application name rather than fading over the top of it (is that why
there's such resistance to making this change?)
