Besides us not having any support for remembering it in a session, it's far too easy to pop out toolbars. I've also never understood why it's preferable to have toolbars that occlude other windows (and indeed UI design experts agree...). We do not have toolbars of an unusual size (though as someone's already pointed out, we do have ones that require being the shape they are by default.) Two final notes: Firefox removed its 'grippies', and when I disabled them in LyX, we didn't have anyone complain. It was originally done in: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=lyx-devel&m=105009954502262&w=2 Note that the /right/ thing to do is to let the toolbars be moved when in the "Edit Toolbars" dialog (but not torn off). regards john
