Bug Description

As the application menus are not visible, users who want to open an application menu have to move their mouse cursor to the top of the screen and then move the cursor again to the correct menu. When the menu is always visible, users can make an initial move directly to the correct menu option/submenu they want to access, resulting in less time and error.

This is not a duplicate of bug 682788, which is about where menus appear on large screens, not about their default visibility. If the "desired change" described there was implemented, this bug would not be fixed.
