  1. The main Plover window and all of its children don't hold focus in the system upon summoning. The Plover icon in the dock must be used to "wake" the app and get access to its menus.
  2. There are no entries in the menu bar.

Good news, bad news. Good news: I don't think this a problem with Plover. Bad news: I haven't been able to successfully build Plover with working menu bar on any commit, no matter how old. This means that the build deps for me are no good. Got to figure out what causes the problem and document it.

So I think this partially has to do with wxPython updating. For one, I get retina-compatible builds, whereas it would seem that 2.5.8 was not retina. I'm going to look into customizing the menu bar, because at the moment it is not populated and Plover doesn't respond to Cmd+Q, and doesn't pull its windows to the front.
