Yes
I went to Unsettings and turned the Global menu to off. Then I went to
Global menu in and put it in top panel. Then I opened Appearance ->
Behaviour and set Show the menu for a window to be in the window's title
bar.
I still see the pointer change to a hand when I click and hold on a
menu, but the menus seem to be a little more responsive. That is I don't
seem to have to tap and release the mouse button quite so quickly to get
a menu to drop down.
After making the changes outlined above something else has changed a
little. It seemed that some how the system didn't realize the menu was
in the title bar. Sometimes rapidly clicking on a menu item would cause
the window to open full screen just like double clicking on a blank
space in the title bar will. I can't get it to do that anymore.
