It would seem as though the toolbar is built directly from the rcp.
Overall, I would say that it would be a good idea atleast to make this
dynamic (would make it easier for me on the sony side); as well as
personally, I never use some options, it would be fine to atleast make
them definable by the user.

Well, ideally, it would be best to create a way for the user to
highlight what they want to export. From there, they just select
export and it magically appears in a memopad entry :)

Unfortunatly, the trouble with that is becuase everything is being
written to the screen as an image (not as text), the original content
of the text is lost and has to be re-rendered just to get what the
user highlighted. Ultimatly, under the current implementation it would
be a nightmare, imo.
