Thanks Michael,
I had deleted that "MainMenu" NSMenu from the MainMenu.nib thinking I didn't
need it as I had another NSMenu statusItem for my app. But putting it back from
an empty project's nib file solved the issue. Now the textFields accept
cut,copy and paste key equivalents and since i have set LSUIElement to 1, the
Application-Menu doesn't appear.

but since I don't have/want a menuItem to connect to FirstResponder's paste
method, it doesn't react in any way to Command-v. However the textfield is able
to receive paste method by Control-clicking and selecting from the system-wide
contextual menu.
I don't know what a "menubar app" is, but if it's anything like an
LSUIElement app then you can just create the menu item like you
normally would. The menu bar doesn't appear, but any time the app is
frontmost the key equivalents still function.
