OK, I know this probably violates all HI guidelines, but I have a client who needs (ok, wants) a special-purpose app to draw some stuff that overlaps the menu bar. Is that even possible?

Well, depending on what you really mean, you can create an NSStatusItem and set a view for it and do custom drawing there.

Yeah, but what they want is something that's about twice as tall as the menu bar, overlapping it. Not something that fits nicely inside it.
