i think this is a bad idea, because in the bottom of the window today
there are too much controls and if we put other buttons on the bottom
there will be too much confusion because our eye must watch all the
windows before find the tool button that we want use...

the right choice is to purge some useless button or tools....
an exemple?
if i have a look to amarok's windows when the collection tab is open i
can see 2 (two) searchbox..... horrible....
it's a good idea, imho, use only one searchbox but like firefox's
one... with a little menù... a tiny e simple menù like in firefox 2.0

sorry for my english....

aloha
