Ok, I'm finally starting to listen... :)
I switched my menubar over to Gtk2::UIManager, and although unrelated,
it solved a different problem.
I figured out the quick-n-dirty method for the toolbar problem,
though. Basically I just count the number of "children" the toolbar
has with $toolbar->get_children.
If it has the original number of ToolButtons (say, 7) then the toolbar
"knows" to create and insert $new_item. But if it has, say, 8 children
and I want it removed, I just hide it with $new_item->hide(); bringing
it back is easy with $new_item->show().
Took me awhile. Should've just listened in the first place. ;) Thanks again.
