I don't feel like digging through Inside Mac to find it, but there is an
explicit statement that the application menu bar must leave room for desk
accessory menus. If you do anything with the menu bar past a certain point,
then you are not following the long-established spec. Since in MultiFinder
DA's get their own menu bars, Apple has just taken space guaranteed to be
left empty by correct software and done something useful with it.
