Chromium defaults to drawing the title bar itself as part of the window,
for the same space-saving reasons. GTK+ applications using the header
bar still have window buttons too - by default a close button, but
optionally minimize/maximize.

Anyway, I'm pointing them out as the applications that popularized this
feature, not as applications *only* providing this choice.

Firefox lacks support for this on Linux because it's not viewed as a
first tier platform. The menu bar will go away on Linux by default when
the new interface is released quite soon. It might not stay around as a
supported feature for much longer.
