Hi,
I dislike the solution of having 'tool-options' in a docker ( as on Krita
or Gimp ).
This docker become a 'must-have/precious docker' on screen and finish to be
displayed for all steps, all the time.
I wasn't a friend of the initial idea of adding a bottom toolbar as you
might know,  but if the tool options ( sliders / buttons ) could appear in
this bottom toolbar, I woud be happy about it. ( even better if the slider
looks like Gimp 2.8 Combobox/Sliders ; with text in the cell, easy to see
number and precise sliding with a stylus )

Just a thought out of all technical constrain. I'm sure there is a ton. :)
