I just looked at each of the toolbar items and forgot that most of them 
were even there.  Maybe two toolbars to pick from would help: turn on 
the often used items and then optionally turn on the less used.

looks fairly straightforward at first glance... that is, if we were a 
native Windows application w/o GTK.
