I want to clarify: when the frame is minimized in GTK, all its detached
menus are minimized as well, but not the tool bar.  The floating tool bar
is still shown when its frame is not visible.  I don't know is it
possible to keep detached menus visible with the iconified frame with
some configuration, but the detached tool bar with the hidden frame is
what I can see in the GTK Emacs build.
