** Description changed:

  With Ubuntu 14.04 using the default Unity desktop system, when the
  System Settings => Appearance => Behavior setting for "Show the menus
  for a window" is set to "In the window's title bar", Gimp's menus are
- are usable.  Attempting to use them only lets you move the window around
- (normal behavior for an 'empty' title bar).  The menus are there, but
- you can't click on them. We really don't like the MacOS/Finder behavior
- of the single menu bar at the top and would prefer the more
+ are not usable.  Attempting to use them only lets you move the window
+ around (normal behavior for an 'empty' title bar).  The menus are there,
+ but you can't click on them. We really don't like the MacOS/Finder
+ behavior of the single menu bar at the top and would prefer the more
  'traditional' Gnome menu bar on each toplevel window.  It works for
  other applications (eg Firefox), but not for Gimp.

  I expected to be able to use gimp's menus, specificly the File menu, but
  instead it did not work and all it would let me do is more the top level
  around the screen.
