2 years later... LIM in 14.04 is a poorly thought-out hack. What's more
important, a window title, or the menus.  I get the feeling that nobody
on the Unity team actually uses local menus, so nobody really thinks
about it.

At least in 12.04 I could disable the whole global menu nonsense and get
back to a sane menu system.  In 14.04, the much touted LIM is a flop
without the "always visible" option.

Unbelievable.

Title:
  Menu bar - add option for the global menu to make it always visible

Status in Ayatana Design:
  Triaged
Status in Unity:
  Confirmed
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  
  1) In System Settings/Appearance/Behavior ( see section 2.2 of http://tinyurl.com/7c7nofq ), the "Application Menu" options should be "Integrated in menu bar and hidden" (default) and "Integrated in menu bar and visible"

  2) If "Integrated in menu bar and visible" is selected, the menus
  should always be shown, in exactly the same manner they are currently
  displayed when the pointer is moved over the menu bar.
