  == Other specific issues ==
  === Problems with menus on systems that use a global menubar ===
  
- By default, the unity shell shipped in Ubuntu 11.04 and newer displays application menubars in the top panel.  Some other desktop environments may also provide similar functionality (there is a plasmoid for KDE which does this).

  In these environments, problems with the menus are not always an application bug.
  
- If you experience an issue with the '''content''' of the menubar, menus or menuitems (ie, what the actual text says, what the icons display or the state of any radio or check items), then this should be reported as an application bug (against Firefox or Thunderbird).  If you experience an issue with '''actions''' (ie, what happens when you click on a menuitem), then this might be an application bug too.

  In general, any problem with the '''view''' of the menubar, menus or menuitems is normally a bug with the desktop shell instead.  Examples of this might include:
   * Alignment of elements in the menu

   * The functionality is not supported by any other components involved with providing the menubar (ie, dbusmenu, unity and even GTK), and so, there isn't any change we could make in Firefox that would add this functionality to the global menubar.
  
  Please don't report this issue as a bug.

+ ==== Keyboard type-ahead feature does not work with the global menubar ====
+ 
+ Gecko has a feature that allows you to select bookmark items from a menu with the keyboard, using a type-ahead like feature. Other toolkits lack this feature though, so this won't work with the global menubar. Please don't report this as a bug against Firefox, as it isn't. This is functionality that needs to be added to the toolkit responsible for drawing the menu
  
  === The "Open with" dialog does not offer a choice of applications ===
