My opinion on this is simple enough.  Keep the toolbar, but add a configuration option 
to hide it.  My reasoning is, some of us don't use bbpager or bbkeys.  We'll need a 
way to get between desktops.  But for those of us who don't want to use the toolbar, a 
simple configuration statement in .blackboxrc should be sufficient to hide it.

It's better to have a feature & not need it than need a feature and not have it.
