--- Comment #3 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
For GSOC 2016 work on the Notebook Bar an UNO toggle control was provided [1]
and is integral to the MUFFIN modes, but as noted for bug 90195 it was not
assigned a short-cut.

When I customize the Writer View menu and add the .uno:MenuBar toggle it will
persist for the 'Contextual Single' mode. But not for Standard or Single as
noted. So try with Contextual Single (IMHO its hybrid handling of context
sensitive elements makes it the best of the MUFFIN assemblages).

IMHO the better customization than a View menu assignment is to assign a
keyboard shortcut to the toggle control.  I find <Atl>+<Ctrl>+F10 easy to work
with, and the shortcut is essential for UI mode where you are unable to exit
without the main menu.

There is still some question as to a11y support, that the <F10> alone should
expose the main menu to position the UI to a consistent place -- bug 90195, bug
107343

But this is => NAB

Otherwise there is no benefit cross platform to overloading <Esc>/<Alt> for
main menu handling, and as enhancement would be a clear => WF
