The main reason for having a menu bar is discoverability. The
idea is that you can browse through the menus and get a feel
for what commands are potentially available to you. That's not
so easy to do when everything is hidden in contextual menus.
This was not a problem with the RISC OS menu concept.
Only some menu items were depending on the mouse position.
Actually the menu items were easier to discover as the non-applicable
items were not hidden but greyed out.
