  I disagree.  I use some of those actions very often.

  I don't see it being overpopulated at all.  KWord, KSpread, etc have what I 
would call overpopulated toolbars, but this is tradition in such apps, and 
you know, people learn after a day or two how to work with those quite 
efficiently.

   Being able to click Print instead of hunting through the menus or working 
through the toolbar configuration is a feature.  Being able to clear the 
combo at the click of a button instead of via activating a context menu or 
holding in the backspace key is a feature.
