Bug Description
Binary package hint: unity
GTK/Gnome applications that have a full screen mode do not display the menu bar, since the menu is stolen by Mutter. This may be an unexpected behavior in some cases (e.g. Terminal, in full screen mode, is still supposed to show the menu bar).
Also, using the shortcuts to access the menu causes an awkward effect, since the menu (but not the menubar) is shown relative to it's position in mutter's panel, making it look like a ghost popup menu.
When switching to fullscreen mode, mutter could keep an auto-hiding top panel over the fullscreen window.
