I agree about this one too.

Other things:

   - When trying to click on "edit", the clickport sometimes feels a bit
   small, hard to reach with the mouse pointer
   - When there are no panels on the left, in advanced user mode, I
   sometimes go over the edit drop-down while trying to reach the xwiki
   drop-down thus ending up with 2 drop-down menus that overlap, it's a bit
   confusing

Other than that I like them :-) (but I'm also a heavy keyboard shortcut user
so my opinion isn't worth that much).
