Do you even need a preference?
There appears to be a small textured area to the left of the toolbar; in
Netscape 4.x, at least, a similarly-textured area can be clicked to
"minimize" the toolbar to the left of which it appears (or dragged to
move the toolbar), although the Netscape one has a small triangle above
the texturing that points down if the toolbar is visible and to the
right if it's minimized, so perhaps the "minimize" option isn't
available in GTK+'s toolbar.
Qt's toolbar has support for "close buttons" which might offer that
functionality. I haven't looked at what Windows or Aqua offer.
If it does need a preference, I'm curious whether other applications
offer a "show toolbar"/"add toolbar" option and, if so, where they put
that option.

Qt, it appears, can also handle XPM files in buttons; I'd be inclined to
put them in image/toolbar - if we ever support a toolkit that can't
handle XPM, the images we'd need would probably have other suffixes, and
we could put them there as well.
We should probably consider using the GTK+ stock items when using GTK+
2.x (assuming you aren't already doing that).
