severity 25 wishlist
thanks

The menu-bar currently isn't counted as part of the "text area" (whose
size is described by the height and width frame parameters), whereas the
tool-bar is.

I agree that the way the toolbar behaves in this respect is preferable,
but because Emacs still counts sizes in multiple of lines and columns,
it also has drawbacks (typically a few pixels wasted between the
tool-bar and the actual text).

Hopefully, we'll fix this at some point.
