??? The drop-down menu also hides part of the window's text, doesn't
it?  More generally, _something_ has to be hidden, because this is a
text-mode terminal: the menu cannot move outside of the frame, where
it wouldn't overlap any of the windows.

So why is it important that the Edit menu is hidden, but not that the
whole text below the File menu is suddenly unreadable.

That already exists: use tmm-menubar.
