Before people say it doesn't need fixing "as using nautilus as root is
stupid", this affects ANY program with a GUI that is ran as root. This
includes GParted, gedit etc.

Title:
  The nautilus menu is not being returned to nautilus window when
  browsing nautilus as root

Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Previously when using a root nautilus browser the global menu would be disabled & nautilus's menu would return to the nautilus window.
  This no longer happens & no menu is available in a root browser.
  I'm aware that the use of a root nautilus browser is 'quitely' being discouraged (At least that is my impression.

  In any event this does represent a regression of sorts, if anything
  can be done about this that would be nice, if not so be it.
