Are you sure Ben?

I'm runing 1024x768 on my laptop and the menus take up under a quarter 
of the bar.  I can take a screenshot if you like it might be a font 
setting on your system.

Perhaps they would be a problem with large font sizes settings but menus 
and icons are always an accessibility nightmare and I think the tri menu 
grouping far outweighs the real estate it uses.

A menu for each of the three groups of shortcuts, seems like an 
excellent idea to me.  One of the few things I liked about CDE was the 
way it's easy to group sets of shortcuts together and this is an 
excellent progression of this idea.
