A number would work if it can be mapped to the container elements in the
kernel side. Maybe it's better using the string since doesn't matter the
order in which the list is displayed.
 
Other things that were planned to be included in the toolbar, but never
implemented, are: 

- Newline, to be able to have two or more rows of buttons.

- Mathpanel to the toolbar, for those that use math very often.
  Buttons are trivial, it should be possible to put the symbol menus
  and the functions list.

Or not drawn at all, like it is currently.

agreed, better suited to the gui independence.
