No.

I don't know what you mean by "maximize to panel". As for the global
menu, patches for that are heading upstream for Firefox, Thunderbird,

That would mean things like the time, volume, and battery status would
be invisible much of the time, and would take up much of the launcher
when they were visible. It would be the worst of both worlds.
