Comment 4 for bug 926213

As doctormo pointed out in a recent Ayatana discussion that unfortunately I can't seem to be able to link to today:

> "Panel' is a normal noun for anything made with a wood finish"

I suppose "bar" is an overloaded term too, but I think bar makes more sense on a computer to non-GNOME 2 users than panel does.

I believe the consensus from multiple Ayatana (& Documentation) discussions over the past year or so is that we should use either "top bar" or "menu bar" and be consistent about it. Mark, you are of course aware that indicators are menus. In fact, in user documentation, I prefer to call indicators "status menus" as presented at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MenuBar

I strongly prefer "menu bar" even if the bar doesn't contain app menus because it will still have status menus, and app menus won't be going away from Ubuntu's standard home/office install any time soon.
