This makes sense to me (yet another toolbar!), although I can't see why
the "navigation" tools couldn't be integrated within another existing
toolbar. The Search toolbar comes to mind first, of course
reover this is consistent with
the OS startup menu.
As for the "Writer Document", I don't like the "document" word because
the suite does just that: documents, whatever the module used. Writer
creates *text* documents, Calc generates *sp
quot;don't touch that" or "transfert the functionality to some
place where John Doe can find it as easily as he would now". My two
proposals above are going that route.
