Me neither.

It seems  to me that it's simple  enought to gather all  the leaf menu
items on the main menu and move them automatically to an "Application"
menu if you have to have horizontal menu. 

So the  user interface  should be designed  with the vertical  menu in
mind, and should be used like this.

If some perverse user wants  to have horizontal menu, the software can
do this transformation for him.  Note  that he will still want to have
a vertical menu as a pop-up menu anyway!
