We could add the hamburger button to the toolbar so it could hide the menu.
Not everyone has the toolbar visible. And it'd have to be visible in the default toolbar layout (-1) or else people who do have it visible wouldn't realize they had to customize the toolbar in order to get their menu back. Additionally, anyone who has already customized their toolbar would have to somehow get their toolbar.xml file overridden by the default one. Otherwise, we'd have to add special code to add it unconditionally to the toolbar when the menu is hidden, which would require special casing to ensure it's not overflowed off of the toolbar and such. Of course then people would want preferences to disable that behaviour, etc.
IMO, adding a "Show Menu" item to the right-click menus is a simple and effective way to restore a lost menu bar.
P.S. Personally I have no reason to hide the main menu, I just put the message window on the right to use all that wasted screen-estate, leaving ample vertical space for the menu/toolbar/code.
