The problems are the following:

- In GTK+, you can tell a menu to go in its own window, but you have to 
implement the tear-off handle and management yourself apparently. I don't have 
time to do that!

- In Qt4, you officially have support for tear-off menus, but when you 
activate it, it behaves strangely. Apparently, it's buggy.
