  [Impact]

  I have selected to have window menus in the window's title bar. This
  works great, except for Qt apps. After selecting a menu item in a Qt
  app that produces a dialog, the menu is no longer accessible.  The
  only way to get the menu back, is to switch to another window, and
  then back to the affected app.

  [Test Case]

  1. Start qtcreator
  2. Resize window so that it is not maximised
  3. Select 'Help' -> 'About Qt Creator'
  4. Dismiss 'About Qt Creator' dialog
  5. Move mouse over window titlebar.

  [Regression Potential]

  It's possible other menu interaction bugs may have been introduced.
