Well, the test file contains two tests that verify different aspects of the 
system menu bar behavior on macOS. Overall it still looks useful and I would 
prefer to keep it with the proposed changes unless there are objections.

As for verifying that the Spotlight field is added under the "Help" menu, I 
will file a new bug to introduce a separate manual test for that purpose.
