I was wondering if I should open a feature request for this on
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GUACAMOLE

But then I stumbled upon
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GUACAMOLE-1424 which basically want
to achieve the same thing (use a button or an always on top menu bar to
open the guacamole menu) but not for the same use case (the reporter is
interested by guacamole use on a smartphone guacamole when I have a more
general use case in mind with a button also for the "classic" desktop
browser).

Would it make sense if I add the context of my use case to the feature
request (and maybe change the title to reflect that it's a proposal for
desktop+mobile browsers) or is it better to create another ticket?

Best,
Maxim
