Simply distributing menu items sounds like a fairly easy task.
Doing so would assume that there is always at least one document

Exactly. So, do you have some Inkscape-like GUI on your mind?
well I know this is insane, but I have Mac OS X in mind, where the menu is sticked to a menubar that is always located at the top of the screen :) To have a dummy image window open all the time just to have the file/ open commands accessible does not sound very smart to me to be honest :( May be we can shrink the menu in the toolbox down to an "GIMP" menu that just contains some About GIMP, Open / Acquire / New Image, GIMP Preferences and Quit command contains. Questions left: how about the Xtns and more seriously how about the help? All in all I'm pretty used to the menu bar in the toolbox now and the only reason for shrinking it is for me to be able to have a toolbox that consists of two columns of tools only. (To be honest that works always this wan on OS X, but I had to sacrifice the help menu that is now always hidden to me).

But even if I "knew what I would like", I'm not a usability specialist, may be there come other smart ideas up when needed.
