I agree. I think this is something which should probably go into 
Preferences.app, since it's a decision that will probably be made once and 
stay that way forever; personally, I wouldn't want to change menu styles 
on a per-app basis.

That being said, here's my €.02: Although I'm a fan of Apple's menu bar, 
what's really nice is NeXT's right-click menu, where you get the entire 
menu (vertical style) with a right click on any app window. It's fast, and 
you get it without moving the mouse at all. Would it be possible to have 
the menu bar and keep the right-click menu?
