I suspect some judicious use of TMPL_IF and TMPL_ELSE could let the menu
bar be generated from a single template, but that needs the templater
calls to have a parameter saying which menu bar tab to activate. Is
there any problem with adding such a parameter?

That's an idea I had a few time ago.
Another solution would be to have a "generic" style sheet, and a little specific with only the differing menu.
For example :
style.css defines admin, acqui, about, circ...
acqui.css defines only acqui.

In every acquisition template :
<include name="style.css">
<include name="acqui.css">
css RFP specifies that the last definition of a style is the active one.

The advantage of such a solution is that it does nothing in perl scripts.
