I looked at the patch, and it's only a workaround: for monodevelop it
doesn't fix the stated bug of "doesn't show its menu in the panel"

I think it's better to not display this as "fix released": this way when
browsing monodevelop bugs in ubuntu it'll show up...


On the other hand, Since I'm personally interested in solving this bug i was 
already looking forward to gather info to fix it...

i started with
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopExperienceTeam/ApplicationMenu ...and
unfortunately i stopped there (both dbusmenu-dumper and current-menu
aren't able to find the menu... maybe i'll fix a bug about that, but i'm
not yet sure about it, i would like to test them a little bit more)

Cody, from your july message i see that you have definitely some insight on the 
cause of the bug, and you said also that anyone is welcome to come and try to 
fix the bug...
it's that still so, or are you working directly on it now?
(Obviously i'd like to help, but i have other duties and cannot guarantee 
anything)

In case, how do you think it should be fixed?
Inside monodevelop, making it fire a dbus message (i've not yet looked into the 
exact mechanism that it's been used, so sorry for my imprecision) each time 
that it adds an item to the menu?
Inside gtk/appmenu-gtk, to get this working in every other application that is 
creating menu dinamically like monodevelop?

Thank you for any guidance

** Changed in: monodevelop (Ubuntu)
       Status: Fix Released => Confirmed
