I don't believe that everyone should be using in-window menus.   Theme
switching has always been imperfect, especially regarding in-window menus.

What is likely needed is some code in the deactivate method of the GSTheme
class to remove the in-window menus from all menus when switching.   I was too
lazy to do this while working on the GNOME theme, but this is a sore spot
which needs to be addressed.

I removed the old way of switching between windows because it does not serve
the purpose of meshing with any existing environment.  Switching the in-window
menus in and out of windows is not implemented by any window manager I am
aware of.
