I agree here with Albert about vertical text buttons - I would prefer a
vertical list of icons which shows a tooltip with the name. The same as the
Ubuntu unity panel, or the OSX dock (vertical), Using icons ensures
consistency of size, and after repeated use users will understand the
symbols without needing to read the tooltip.
