FYI, I find this very frustrating as well. The main problem I have is the
outright disappearance of an entire toolbar row: IMO, it would be better to make
the toolbar row persist across context shifts, even if the toolbar itself must
go away.

For example, let's say I'm editing a writer document in a standard text area and
my toolbar setup looks like this:

| <default 1st toolbar row>
| <default 2nd toolbar row>

I then go over a bulleted list. I've set up a seperate third toolbar row to hold
the outline toolbar, so my display flashes and a third toolbar row appears:

| <default 1st toolbar row>
| <default 2nd toolbar row>
| 3rd toolbar row with outline toolbar

That flash is a bit disconcerting, but I can live with it. My problem is that
after moving back into a normal area, my toolbar layout once again looks like 
this:

| <default 1st toolbar row>
| <default 2nd toolbar row>

I think it would be better if it looked like this instead:

| <default 1st toolbar row>
| <default 2nd toolbar row>
| <empty toolbar>

i.e.: if a new row is created to hold a context-sensitive toolbar, keep it
around even if the toolbar itself disappears. this shouldn't be too difficult to
implement, doesn't involve a radical ui redesign, and would remove the major
source of frustration (the document view jiggling up and down in response to
toolbars appearing/disappearing depending on context)
