While for your example it does look nicer, in applications which don't
have an intented widget as the body it looks a bit strange.  The menu
seems to flow into the content.  A unified widget would be the proper
solution.

As for changing GTK, this (in your ~/.gtkrc-2.0) seems to do the trick:

style "MenuStyle" {
        xthickness = 0
	ythickness = 0
}
class "GtkMenuBar" style "MenuStyle"
