Hmmm, this seems to have little to do with Simon's need to find a more obvious 
place for the insert image tool, unless you think this single tool should 
replace the current content of the Write View secondary toolbar? The View 
toolbar eye icon is already used in a number of activities, are you proposing 
to update these? We also have at least one Activity that has a pretty full 
Activity secondary toolbar* and a pretty full View toolbar (Turtle Blocks/Art).

* the extra space is used for different export formats into the Journal, we 
should do this for Write's export formats as well (currently hiding under the 
Keep icon). Actually, Walter does have a couple of import from Journal tools in 
the TA Activity toolbar, perhaps Write's insert image tool could be considered 
there as an import image from Journal function?
