New toolbars, folder in toolbars

[ce]

While working on a presets file (including icons), I noticed that the toolbar
button widths are larger than necessary to display the icon. This of course
reduces the amount of buttons I can place in the toolbar. So I wonder if the
width of the buttons could be decreased, e.g. being quadratic. Imi told me that this required lots of work, as JToolbar doesn't provide enough features to implement it easily.

The second wish related to this are folded/individual toolbars or even floating toolboxes. When using many presets, the tooolbar immediately is stuffed with a lot of cool
preset buttons. As soon as the toolbar is full, all of the remaining buttons
are drawn outside the screen, making them a bit unreachable :) .
I wonder if it was possible to autofold the toolbar, or even to provide the
possibility to add a fold in the toolbar editor (maybe similar to separators),
or even both, or to design toolboxes, so the user can create an arbitrary amount of them, e.g. one for streets, one for railways and so on.

• Icons are quadratic, the spacing depends on the look&feel (try the plastic_laf plugin).
• the folder stuff isn't native implemented in JToolBar and can get tricky, but maybe implemented some day.
