I can see a few changes that would alleviate this problem in advance of a full
spec fix:

1) Gentler defaults where possible.
Example: Clicking a line removes the formatting toolbar, but adds the Drawing
Object Properties toolbar to the right side of the standard toolbar.  Instead,
add it below the standard toolbar, where the formatting bar just disappeared
from.  This causes no jarring of the content area.

2) Scroll the document differently when adding toolbars.
If a toolbar needs to appear docked at the top, scroll the visible document area
down the exact height of the toolbar.  In essence, keep the lowest visible area
of the document still visible when a toolbar appears at top.  The visual effect
would be no apparent movement of document content, just reduced visible area
where a toolbar "covered" some of the content.  Do the opposite for toolbars
that need to appear docked at bottom.
This should also eliminate the jarring effect, and reduces the problem area to
just what's covered by an appearing toolbar.  If the cursor is in such an area,
maybe it should be scrolled back into visibility.  I'm not sure about what to do
there.
