I dunno - while it doesn't sound too bad, it's a lot of
space wasted  for those 2 to 3 items you'll likely find
in that menu.

That's pretty much why I prefer the icon approach myself.

My menu bars seem to be well below 50% full most of the time. The other
part, the grey void, is what is truly wasted space.

What is considered too wide for a menu bar depends on how small you
make your windows, which is again tied to different people's use
patterns.

Would using the abbreviation "App" be too geeky?

I'd say, yes. Additionally, 'app' isn't even a word, so it's double bad.
