Making menus easier to find

 

I think that for new users having the menus hidden until mouse over by
default is not necessarily a preferential option. Could the menus be
shown by default (window title in the middle), with the option to change
back to the current behaviour?

Also, an option (this time not default) to place the menus in the
title-bar of the application would be nice. For restored windows the
window title would then be right aligned.

Below are two mock-ups for this behaviour:

Restored window

Any thoughts?
