            Bug ID: 119996
           Summary: Remove support for GNOME Shell application menu
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.2.0.0.alpha0+ Master
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Keywords: needsDevEval
          Severity: minor
          Priority: low

          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: fito at libreoffice.org

This was a cool little feature added by Caolán in [1], but from GNOME 3.32 on,
it will effectively become dead code.

>From GNOME 3.30’s release notes:

“From 3.32, application menus will no longer be shown in the GNOME 3 top bar,
and application developers are recommended to remove their application menus in
time for GNOME 3.32” [1]

GNOME designers have *finally* realized what an usability nightmare this design
was.
