Description Peter Lairo 2005-05-31 15:37:05 UTC 
Optimize the Customize Toolbars Dialog

It is too cumbersome to add toolbar buttons that are not in the standard set.
The user should be able to just select a category on the left (or top) (which
BTW should mirror the MENU items) and then on the right have a list of ALL
functions in that category which he can click to "Add" or drag to the toolbar.

A combination of the way WordPerfect(1) and MS Word(2) do it would be best (see
screenshots).

(1) - ability to add a separator, 
    - separate dialogs for what to customize: A: toobar/menu B: add buttons

(2) Categories on left, buttons on right

OK, it's been seven years. Any chance on getting this on someone's plate?
