Thanks, just one thing that I'd like to explain that makes a difference here:

Clear, Undo, Redo, Show Active Track - these are all actions, directly
related with the playlist. They definitely belong in the toolbar if
only for this reason.

Layout configuration however is a setting (which also contains some
actions, making it a bit of both). But it's more of a setting. This is
why it's unlike all the other icons in the playlist toolbar, it makes
it special.
