[Usability] What is the name of this menu?



The menu that looks like 
" *foot* Applications Places Desktop"

has no name.
The applet is called "Menu Bar", which is ambiguous,
and breaks style guide rules to write "menubar" in one
word.
Considering that this is perhaps the user's main point
of access to GNOME, and that it's mentioned very
frequently in docs, I think it needs a name. (There is
also the problem of ambiguity with the Nautilus Places
menu, and the ambiguity of the word Desktop.)

I've been saying "The top panel menu" which is a bit
wordy.

I would suggest we strip the old and unused "Main
Menu" of its name, and use it for this:

Any other ideas?
