  I'm really looking toward this change, I always wanted to be able to
configure the menus shown in the menu panel (which is the only one I
use).

  Another thing I'd like to have are MacOS-lice global menus, there
already is a patch to GNOME 1.4 and a Sawfish module to get them, but it
is a little broken wrt Bonobo apps (Evo, for example).
  Is somebody considering having them in GNOME 2.x?

  P.S: I'm not in any way associated with Jason, and I'm not promoting
his website, I just happen to have met him at t.o and to like his work
