Ben,

Perfect.  Exactly what I was envisioning when I suggested a separate 
menubar area below the titlebar and above the content area.  And as you 
say, Chipp can continue to do what he's doing with the existing 
functionality.  The only suggestion I might have is that a font fact 
and size be specifiable when setting the windows menubar in this new 
scheme.
