You've probably got two choices that are reasonable: You could make a "mock registrar" in DBus that would tell all the applications that there menus are being registered, but then ignoring them. All of them just register to a well-known name in DBus. appmenu-gtk would then think the menus are being used and hide them in the application. Or you could make your own menu module. The way that the appmenus work is that GTK loads a module (appmenu-gtk) which controls the exporting of them over DBus. You could make your own module that just always hid the menus. --Ted
