I admit, at first sight toolboxes look cool. But:
a) when moving mouse it is too much "animations"
b) you cannot use keyboard to selected feature (in context menu you can) -- think: handicapped people
c) context menu does not go off when you move your mouse too much -- think: handicapped people
d) they clutter the general view of the desktop
e) they behave like an advertisement not a software feature (user is not in control)
f) it is too easy to interfere with other content shown on desktop in toolbox place
