it.
  
  
  I have never seen a close button on a standard toolbar. Are you sure it is a 
correct design pattern?
  
  There are cases where the close button might be misleading given the 
configurability of the toolbars.

distinction between the two, so it is not clear what the close button applies 
to.//

  Regarding the HIG guidelines 
<https://hig.kde.org/components/navigation/toolbar.html>. We are currently 
violating the following two rules
  
  1. Don’t change the button style from the default, which is text beside icons.
  2. Don’t hide toolbars by default. If a toolbar can be hidden, users should 
easily be able to make the toolbar viewable again.
  
  Is this fine?
  
  My opinion:
  
  1. Don't care much. "Icon-only" is fine for me.
  2. I think it makes sense to hide it by default. It is consistent with the 
current Okular behavior, so users that are used to the current toolbar will 
find no difference.

  Now the default is "icon-only". If a user changes to "text alongside icons" 
the toolbar will overflow even on a large monitor. Should I configure the 
toolbar so that if the user changes to "text alongside icons" the toolbar 
appears like this?
  (the user can then expand the remaining icon-only buttons one by one by right 
clicking on them if he needs to visualize the text)
