Bug Description

The application menu includes commands like "Save as..." and "E-mail", which are specific to a single window's document.
According to the Gnome HIG section on application menus [1], it shouldn't: "Only include menu items that relate to the application as a whole, such as application preferences. Items that are specific to a particular window or view, or which act on content within an application window, should not be included."
(What brought me here was being unable to find the "Save as..." command.)

(I'm using version 3.14.)
