After updating KDE Apps to 16.04.2 on Manjaro Linux (which uses mostly Arch packages) I can't disable menu bar in Kwrite anymore. According panel button and menu entry toggles status bar instead of menu bar. All was good before update. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Click on "toggle menu bar" panel button / "show menu bar" menu entry. Actual Results: Status bar toggling with menu bar in place. Expected Results: Toggle menu bar.
