Spread improvements, HighDPI support, new decorations, and the usual bug-fixes are also making it into the new LTS release. Is Unity starting to grow up?"

    it worked quite well on smaller screens, but has become a pain on larger ones (constantly mousing around to get to the menu).

    Why use the mouse? CTRL + F2 for the left part of the menu, CTRL + F8 for the menubar, then arrow keys to navigate (if you switched the Fn key to the proper mode, i.e. "Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys" in "System Preferences -> Keyboard -> Keyboard" is checked).
