Fundamentally, this is the issue.

If you could convince KDE to also be interested in implementing such
menu bars in Qt, Motif is now rare enough that it might not matter
too badly if those ugly old applications were weird.

So it is a larger project that GTK+; at a minimum, it is something
that really needs freedesktop work and cooperation to be worth
pursuing.
