There are various other issues with having the file menu for a floating window being located in the panel. The most obvious of which is that it's completely unintuitive because one would logically expect that the panel should control the window that it appears to be visibly connected to (the top-most maximised window).
I would like to suggest that the file menu for floating windows be re-located into a "windicator", thereby allowing the maximised window to always have it's file menu located in the panel. This would also allow it to always have it's window controls visible as there would no longer be any confusion about which window's file menu is in the panel.
Perhaps the maximised window can also have a windicator as it's file menu, for the sake of consistency, but located on the left side, next to the window controls, as opposed to the right side.
