the thing is that this behavior is the exact behavior of the activebar function if you dont apply a filter for the buttons. but the moment you apply a filter to hide buttons the remaining ones start moveing to the end of the list if they are clicked on. i dont know if its a sideeffect of the filter code or what but i wish it was optional, and unreleated to the filter system. in fact it kidna reminds me of the "inovation" ms did with their start menu and others where they only show recently and often used features unless you extend it to full list. i must say i find that feature anoying as most often the stuff i want to access is hidden by the menu or moved so that i have to search by name rather then by location...
