With respect to problem (2), I think that this could be handled by

I was going to suggest this as the default behaviour for
NSWindows95InterfaceStyle (actually, I was going to implement it and
see if it worked nicely, but I haven't had time). Most of the time,
this is how people expect document-driven applications to work in
Windows and Windows clones like GNOME and KDE. The current behaviour
of moving the menu to the top of the screen is really jarring in these
applications. I would suggest the following rules for the Windows
interface style:
- When an application is first launched, a new document is
automatically created, if no window created by the main nib file is
willing to accept main window status.
- When closing a window, if no other window is willing to accept main
window status then the application exits.
I think this would go a long way towards making GNUstep apps fit in
with other environments.
