Wow. :)
The often-used commands are, of course, better placed to a toolbar/sidebar,
there's no doubt.
But the full commands repertoire cannot be represented on toolbars, and even in
menus.
There are several main problems that this proposal could solve.
1. When I want to use some rarely-used command. :) For a power user, that knows
of some less-used functionality but useful in some situations, this is surely
often encountered situation. One single rare command may be required once a
year, but there's another one, and another, too much of them.
2. When I want to maximize usable screen space, like using new single toolbar.
So, the toolbar space is not too huge.
3. When I don't know (remember) where the command is (menu/toolbar) and what
its icon is, but searching by (part of) command's name will show me its icon
and (hopefully) will show me its position on menu. Further, I may not remember
its correct name, I may enter a word "capitals", and each command having a good
description and growing dictionary of aliases, I'll be presented with
"Format->Text->UPPERCASE" and "Format->Text->Capitalize Every Word" commands,
and also "Format->Character" with help section describing its Font Effects, and
Character Styles in that context. This way, anyone will find it easier to find
commands for requested functionality, easier to learn and enhance proficiency.
