Description

Why does the Keybase Mac client create a user-hostile menu bar extra on startup? It doesn’t do anything useful, can’t be hidden and doesn’t disappear when the app is quit.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the menu bar extra on the macOS client and tracing where it is created during startup. Confirm the expected behavior from the issue: the extra should not appear unnecessarily and should disappear when the app quits; no source file or test is identified in the report.
