            Bug ID: 40642
           Summary: Show windows application menu in OS X global menubar
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.9.9
          Hardware: x86
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: winemac.drv
          Assignee: wine-bugs at winehq.org
          Reporter: f.platte at platte-web.de
      Distribution: ---

The MacDriver has evolved significantly from when it was introduced and I have
no need to use the X11 window environment since quiet some time. However what
is still missing menubar integration. I don't know if this ever was planed,
however I think this is one of the most logical progression for wine on OS X.
I'm posting this now because I just came across a windows tool which does
exactly that. While there were always attempts to theme windows like OS X and
emulating the global menubar now someone found a way to do just that
(http://lee-soft.com/el-capitan-menubar-for-windows/). So as it's possible to
extract windows applications' menus it might be possible to integrate them into
OS X's menubar as GTK and Java can inject menus there, too.
While I related this "bug report" to the MacDriver and OS X it might also be
useful for Ubuntu, as it (optionally) also features a global menubar.
