[Kstars-devel] toolbars

Hello,

I am currently adding the ability for users to customize the toolbars.  Along 
with this, it's time to reconsider what buttons we place on the toolbar by 
default.  I would like to dramatically reduce the default set to:

Zoom in, Zoom out, Find object, Start/Stop clock, and the Timestep widget.  

(i.e., remove Fullscreen, Default zoom, Track, Geographic location, and Set 
time from the default setup).

I'm also considering hiding the View toolbar by default, and adding a Tools 
toolbar (also hidden by default).  

The motivation for having fewer toolbar buttons is that the default for KDE4 
is to have large toolbar buttons with text-under-icons.  The reason for this 
is to encourage application developers to use fewer buttons.

I'd appreciate your feedback!

Jason
