@Chris: We can also argue that having a global menu for anything make the user maximize because this user don't want to move his mouse all over his desk to only reveal a menu ...
I know I feel this problem, and I maximize nothing. Having this option (use global menu only for maximized windows) will actually make my desktop more efficient for unmaximized windows ...
I don't know why you are thinking the opposite, I think "use global menu only for maximized windows" will not do anything about your "fear" of ... of what actually ?!
I mean come on ! It's not like someone will change all his behaviors depending on (on large screens) 2% more wasted space.
And even me, that is extremely annoyed by theses recurring search of the missing menu have not changed my behaviors at all in that matter.
