I just stumbled on this bug. Bug #1292168 from me is related but not duplicate. I felt that I needed to pull over my related comments from there:
["lower" functionality] always *should* have been a part of the standard window menu so let's go ahead and have it in there. Secondly, if right click [the title bar] does not expose this menu because of LIM/Indicator consistency, then let's just go ahead and bring back the window menu as a standard part of every window decoration. I'm thinking it will replace/obsolete the always visible minimize/maximize buttons and will integrate seamlessly with LIM such that opening the window menu and then mousing right will move right on to "File, Edit, View, etc." This would add a further layer of consistency for windows that do not support resizing or maximizing. As is, the dedicated maximize button on them can be taken away leading to slight inconsistency in window decoration, but with a window menu instead it will always be there and will simply have the options inside greyed if the window does not support them. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to unity in Ubuntu.

This menu should remain accessible via Alt+Space for both restored and maximised windows, but should not be accessible via right click. Desired change: - remove the right click menu from window title bars To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/656519/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~dx-packages Post to : dx-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~dx-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
