I am genuinely not certain if you'd assess the toolbar button (I had a
checkbox in mind, actually) more bloaty or more usable. After all, a
something on a toolbar is in plain sight and doesn't require "reaching"
for a menu and pondering about which menu it was in again. (Then again,
lots of visible widgets lead to a cluttered interface.)

At first I "naturally"  expected a popup-blocker widget to be present in
the toolbar editing window - I'm not saying the p-b should be added to the
toolbar by default, but it might be worth considering.

regards,
