** Description changed:
- I currently have a dual-screen setup for work (I dock my laptop with the
- lid up and use that with an external monitor, which I don't think is an
- uncommon setup), and the global menu is quite difficult to use. It's
- made even more difficult for me, because I use focus-follows-mouse too.
+ See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MenuBar?action=diff&rev2=27&rev1=26
+
+ Desired fix:
+ The menu bar should appear at the top of every screen, except those screens
where a window is currently in full-screen mode. (The menu bars on different
displays should not be mirrors, however; opening the “Edit” menu on one should
not simultaneously open it on the others.)

+ Original bug description
+ ------------------------
+ I currently have a dual-screen setup for work (I dock my laptop with the lid
up and use that with an external monitor, which I don't think is an uncommon
setup), and the global menu is quite difficult to use. It's made even more
difficult for me, because I use focus-follows-mouse too.
The global menu currently only ever displays on 1 screen (the left-most
screen for me). This has a couple of issues:
1) For windows I have open on the right-most screen, I have to navigate
a long way (to the screen with the global menu on) just to open the
menu.
2) It really doesn't seem obvious to which window or application the
global menu is actually controlling
