I have 2 to 5 depending on the size of the window. Instead of all five reflexively changing size relative to the window size, they do what the main Xfce4 desktop toolbar does, for example. They become silently hidden behind a drop-down arrow. Or in the case of PulseAudio, a drop-left AND drop-right arrow. :) Neither one is 100% *cognitively friendly*, but no, I don't know of an alternative that would improve the experience. Well, no, wait.... Yes, in fact I do know of an alternative. It would help if the buttons continued to shrink down reflexively so that all could fit in *visibly* together. No, not everyone would like that. That part could be addressed by a wish list item that asks for a preference menu toggle switch to turn that type of feature on and off..... :) My own personal experience is just a fact of #Life related to second by second memory loss issues. To this very day after YEARS of the same, I'll STILL lose at least a few seconds *EVERY SINGLE DAY* wondering where any given window's "button" wandered off to on that top desktop wide toolbar. That "button" will be there, I will just have forgotten YET AGAIN to see if a "drop-down" button hasn't very quietly and *necessarily* appeared to the far right (in my particular Xfce4 use case).
