Hi,

GTK applications, in particular GNOME core applications,
are moving towards "supermenus".

There is even a APIs to recognize those and render
appropriately depending on the shell / OS.

How will Unity render those? The current design does
not allow doing what OSX does, because the left gap
is occupied by the window buttons when the window is
maximized.
