This seems backward. F-f-m was here first, and is still being used by some minority (me included). Current designs break f-f-m functionality. Your comment about ”finding creative solutions” sounds like F-f-m was something new. Designs were made in total ignorance of f-f-m. The requirement should be restated as ”finding creative solutions for things that used to work”, i.e. things that were already working, were ”solved”.
Concept for a shell extension: Show the app menu not based on which window currently has focus, but which window most recently had focus for X amount of time." (I guess 1 second would be good?) When set to 0, that would degrade to "which window is currently focused," the current behavior. That way you could mouse over a window briefly, and while that window would gain focus, the shell would still be showing the app menu for the original window you were working with.
