"Viral Marketing"... >-)

... on the toolbar.

Assuming we'll for the moment go with the inner skip icons*, i'd like to add a 
little "hack" that is, 
- detect whether the svg theme contains non or blank skip buttons and 
- if not, reset the label alignments and enable dragging and animations.

Then, in some kind of "viral marketing", we could leak such (totally 
unsupported, very exclusive and only for the illuminated) themes (w/o skip 
icons) and (have others...) show off, so this becomes
- known
- easily accessible
- used
- and de facto: Standard =)
(well, that is... "hopefully")

This is easy to do, would basically (temporarily) make the skin svg an 
implicit config option and allows a soft migration towards a skip icon free 
solution.

Any objections regarding this?
(To make it clear: there would be no "hackish" code required at all)

Cheers
