Ah, but it /would/ be very useful to be able to create multiple menubars in the IDE and swap them at runtime, with a property to determine which is default (or maybe determine the default in the same way that you determine the default window). I know that it's now possible to change menus in code, but it would be SO much easier to be able to swap whole menubars, for instance if you're making an application that acts like a bundle of several different apps.

Ok. Maybe we can suggest to have targetproperties on every menu item to
tell RB to include a menu (item) only for a target.

I think that 99% of applications have the same menu items on both platforms. So adding this property doesn't sound like good bang for the buck. However, with the new compiler, you can add and remove menus on the fly so you could
do this yourself.
