I've been using those controls for presentation, and it's easy enough, but 
it would be handy if there were a one-stop-shop switch to presentation 
theme. At the moment I'm switching to "Hide Furniture" theme, plus 
switching whatever-it's-called to "zoom-in", and then finally increasing 
font size. If I haven't done it in a while I have to fuss for a bit to 
figure it out again.

Plus on my tiddlers I still see the various edit toolbar buttons... Ok, I 
need the "Punch" theme for that, I think.
