(Get the code!)
I can't stand the global menu. I've switched away from unity as a result.
As a developer, I constantly have a bunch of 'layers' of windows open.
For example, I might have a terminal window open in the background, my IDE over top of that, and finally my web browser for testing the site I'm developing.
Now I refreshed a page on the website and I want to see my terminal in the background (instead of my IDE) to see some output...except I can't just minimize the IDE like I could with previous versions of Ubuntu--because there is no minimize button until I click on my IDE and then move the mouse all the way up to the top-right corner of the screen.
Unity totally interrupts my workflow with the global menu and also the screwed up ALT+TAB order and behavior and all the shortcut keys its taken over. The whole 'lens' idea is awesome though--why wasn't it simply added to Gnome2/3?
