+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #456535 +++

In other native Vista applications like the Windows Explorer, the menubar can be displayed or hidden by pressing the alt key.  The menubar should still be displayed by default on Vista, this bug is just to add the expected behavior of being able to toggle it on or off.

This has been added to Firefox 3.6 in bug 456535. The toolkit bug to make this possible is bug 477256.

This is disabled on Linux, see bug 552302.
