Subject: Re: add a mode-line menu to menu-bar?

I think that having a menu bar menu to do what the mode line menus do
is creeping featurism.  Those operations are in mode line menus
because we wanted clicking on those places to do something natural or
useful.  That is all they have in common.  If we want to provide ways
to do (some of) those things in the menu bar, let's add each one in
the appropriate place in the menu bar.

But let's not do that now.
