Bug Description

I am running Ubuntu 11.10 Beta2 with all current updates and the GNOME shell desktop environment. In gnome-terminal, there is an option when editing your profile settings - "Show menubar by default in new terminals". Normally if you un-check this checkbox, save your settings, and start a new gnome-terminal, the new terminal window will not have a menu bar. However, despite the value of this setting, all new gnome-terminals display their menu bar.

Unchecking the "Show menubar by default in new terminals" in the profile setting does not prevent the menubar from appearing when gnome-terminal is started and only has an effect on whether the "Show Menubar" checkbox in the context menu is checked by default. That checkbox works properly to show/hide the application menu when toggled.
