What's "self" to you is isync to me. If the menu needs access to the top window, it should have a $top_window. The fact that within the methods of the top window the same reference will be in a variable called $self is irrelevant. To the method within the menu it's $top_window, not $self.

Right, and more or less what tye and I agreed upon: what seems to make sense is: it's $self in the module and a var-name that reflects function everywhere else - as an example, for the $self of App, this could be $app (reflecting function), or could be $top_window (if you favour denoting hierarchical meaning).
