OS X provides the concept of "i'm advertising that the menu bar is here at teh 
top of the screen, put your menu here". it's much like how we provide the 
menubar at the top of MainWindow.

on KDE we do this: "let's hunt through the window and see if we find a menubar 
widget we recognize and if we do reparent it over here using xembed".

so it's a difference as to what the environment supplies. for us to do this 
Properly would require that X start providing a way to advertise to 
applications "this is where you put your menubar"
