No, ns-auto-hide-menu-bar does not move the frame at all. The user is
allowed to place the frame above the top of the screen, but this does not
occur automatically. In other words, a frame can be placed at (0, 0).

To answer your earlier questions. You were speculating about adding another
variable for "the auto hide frame title feature". However, I don't think
this is a good idea since there is no such feature. Hiding the frame title
requires the user to explicitly move the frame (or use a package that does
this, like my "multicolumn" package).

Ps. Martin, sorry for the double post, but I realised that I had dropped
the other recipients, so I decided to resend it with a full "To:" list.
