Sorry about the multiple replies, but here is my idea:
Here is an idea, make it time based. it being 'giving the preference to'. If
I
am watching a youtube video inside a maximized firefox windows, and my mouse
activity is low, then the title should be given the preference. If my
mouse/keyboard activity picks up then the menu should be given the
preference.
I assume this is technically feasible.
