That's true, we need both to be possible. I only said that at first for 
compatibility and integration's sake with the already existing gnome 
applications.

I personally like the global menu bar http://live.gnome.org/GlobalMenu that
was proposed some time ago. It's a shame it is still not integrated upstream.
I don't think it will ever be either.

If your solution works seamlessly with that already established global menu, 
it might ease some pains if the gnome project ever wants to do the same thing.
