I'm not going to mess with GTK+ menu placement (and I don't recommend
anyone to try that either, especially with GTK 3, where GTK performing
size allocation a menu causes native input to stop working for a weird
reason), but patches would be welcome to fix that in the Xt builds. If
it helps, Motif provides some feature to define custom areas of a screen
where XmMenuShells should avoid, but I don't remember what it is.
Thanks.
