Hmm.. good points.  Do we have menubars on any other windows besides the 
main window?  I could add a preference to the User Interface - Layout 
pane to put the menu bar items only on the OS X menu bar or only in the 
Wireshark window.  I want to make it feel like a MacOS X application, 
but without going overboard and confusing users.
