should role=menu be an allowed child of menubar?

Shouldn't menubar allow a menu as a child element?

the APG editor menubar example has menuitems and then sibling menus that the menuitems invoke.

to me this seems just like a thing that is very obviously allowed, to the point it wasn't thought to be overtly mentioned. Or, is this something that would need to be better explained for why its allowed. e.g., a menu is allowed so long as it's invoked as a popup... but it's not allowed if you're thinking of having a persistently rendered menu within a menubar.... cause that should probably just be a group then?

Does the issue exists in the editors draft - yarp

+1 to adding it, maybe with a prose note about why it's allowed / not as persistent inline menus?
