By owner I mean maintainer.

Is there some other reason? ;-P

Back to the topic, the real problem with hiding the menu is when someone does it accidentally and doesn't know how to get it back.  If it was a unbound toggle keybinding I think its fine, the user has to set something to enable it and hopefully will remember their keybinding.

But the "hide on startup" option does not work that way.  Once its set the menu always starts hidden, and then without the menu its then very hard to discover how to bring it back.  Thats why I suggested that this option needs to be in a plugin so its somewhat protected and starting Geany with `-p` will mean the plugin won't be loaded and won't hide it so the settings can be fixed.
