I don't think such a toolbar should be added. If at all then it should be added to the image window all the time. And we would have to consider carefully what we want to show there. Only adding it for the no-image case is confusing and inconsistent. > 2) I felt like I had to shorten the main menu, because it made the > window too wide.

Resorting the menus is something that we should avoid to do again. And I don't think that the current menu is too wide. Just make the image window wider. A typical application window nowadays takes 2/3 of the screen width or even all of the screen. I don't see why the GIMP image window should not be allowed to do that as well. Anyway, this is something that the UI team should specify. I hope that we will get some more input from Peter on this soon.
