Always shifting list of often used elements is never useful.
You just won't use it, if it will always change, and if it take you a look and
a thought to pick proper element from the sheet.
This is, unfortunately, the late tendency of UI design - to force people to
waste their time looking at is.
Professional users never look, where they click.
They KNOW where they click. They rarely admit the presence of UI around the
workplace. They concentrated on their work, and UI is just a supplement. If it
needs more attention, than their work, the UI is deficient and needs an
overhaul.

Even if not, you can make it so quite easy yourself.
