Luc, 

Another viewpoint about your navigation bar : look Dolphin, which has a filter
bar on the bottom of icon view. This bar can be enabled/disabled from View
menu.

The bar is small and do not reduce a lots the space for icon view.

Your bar include filter + navigation tools. I recommend to separate both
feature and create :

- One navigation bar.
- One filter bar. 

The advantage is to select the bar depending of the context and use case,
without to reduce icon view text. Of course both can be enabled at the same
time.

There is also another point to include there. In Filter bar, later, we will
host a combo box with tag filters. This mean that tag filters currently hosted
in right sidebar will be removed. Look there :

Also, new filters will be implemented later, as camera type, aspect ratio,
sizes, etc. Look these entries for details :

The is another point to separate navigation and filter tools : a lots of users
want to customize filter by album. Typically, we will store in database the
filters properties for each album....
