That may be an option. I’m guessing (and perhaps you can clarify) that this is 
a vertical market app, or an internal app? Something that,if it isn’t HIG 
compliant, it isn’t going to really hurt your product?

Multiple toolbars is certainly an interested approach. I think it’d be 
interesting (although probably not feasible) to see a screenshot of what you’re 
trying to accomplish.
