UI Configuration for *Nix app

Splunk App for Unix appears to use the pre-6* UI for the top menu.

App, Manager, Alerts, Jobs, Logout all appear on the upper right, like they did before 6*.

I'm using 6.0.2 and I see this in various installs, including a brand new one.

Did I do something wrong with my configuration?

Nope, that's the correct header. We did it this way for a few reasons, but in any case that's the intended behavior. Is it super important to you to have the 6.x header?

Understood, thanks for the feedback. I can see how this can be a confusing experience

Not super important - it is just an inconsistent user experience once using 6.0.

I initially asked because I caught some knuckleheads peers of mine making an app by copying the search app - this led to some UI features not being available after upgrade.

I thought maybe I inadvertently did something similar.
