	We could probably make this a part of the panel functionality.
(The panel does this with itself.)  This would make our system very much
like NeXT.  But we're talking about menus, not menubars.  Also, how is
this an improvement?  It seems like the same as leaving the menu in the
menubar in the first place...  Or am I missing something?

 If you love something, write it in C; if it compiles, it is yours; 
                     if it doesn't, it never was.
