I didn't even realize, I don't see a need for it anyway.

That's because Kitty has something much better:
> Sometimes you need to explore the scrollback buffer in more detail, maybe search for some text or refer to it side-by-side while typing in a follow-up command. kitty allows you to do this by pressing the ctrl+shift+h shortcut, which will open the scrollback buffer in your favorite pager program (which is less by default).
> There's no menu bar at all in fact.
Which is a big plus. Emacs has a menu bar (and a toolbar), and I obviously turn them off, because they take up screen real estate.
