I'm not certain we can soundly reach any conclusions here until Bug 30795 is
addressed and/or resolved first. The "confusion" over the now apparent, poorly
labeled User: preference ' Show editing toolbar ' leads to different
assumptions and or conclusions when considering the issue at hand.

Some believe deselecting that option should equate to disabling the generation
of any toolbar at all - be it 'classic', 'enhanced' or whatever the future may
bring. Others believe (correctly) the option only controls the generation of
the 'classic' toolbar and is independent or overridden by the User preference
that immediately follows it, ' Enable enhanced editing toolbar' (also known as
the WikiEditor extension-generated toolbar). Still others are swayed by the
internal coding terminology in use, ' usebetatoolbar ', as the rationale to
champion the 'classic' toolbar over the other(s) while the opposite know not to
place so much weight on the term 'beta' at all and, rightly or wrongly, keep an
eye towards VisualEditor becoming the "standard" one day. Sharper differences
can be drawn from those basics as well. Even the usurpation of Bug 24713 by Bug
24041 (duplicate) has implications towards "defining" this bug.

So while I personally prefer something along the lines of what I THINK option
(1) of comment 0 means, I can't be 100% sure about it until Bug 30795 is
addressed. And I don't think any of the semi-related bugs that are a variation
on the theme of this one should be acted upon until that happens either.
