I don't use the toolbar, but personally I find almost all of the button
icons used throughout PM to be ambiguous and visually unhelpful.

(Example: in mail filters:  there is a cog wheel.  I have to mouse-over
it to be reminded that it means "new filter".  Then there are a pair of
stacked rectangles.  I have to mouse-over it to remember that it means
"duplicate".  Then there is a trash can which, well, I admit is fairly
intiutive.)
