It's still on the list, but please don't ask me for priorities now.

I also customize the toolbars to my liking and they look much different
to the "default" configuration. My biggest change is that I remove a lot
of things because I use the keyboard for those functions anyway and so I
can get enough space to have all "floating" toolbars docked next to the
"main" toolbar (there is only always one at a time!).
