Whoa! Where is that notion coming from? Some empirical input seems 
to be called for. It may not be the most typical situation, but a 
fair number of GTK apps put up different-looking windows, with 
substantially different menu bars, depending on what the user has 
chosen to do. Some (many?) apps are not one-trick ponies.
