bonoboui toolbar bits ...

Hi Guys,

	What with the API freeze looming on the horizon, and the nastiness with
themes and UI toolbar controls - I was hoping to add several controls to
help you make your stuff look nice; so really - I suppose, I want to
know what extra 'widget' types we need, and some idea of how we can
describe them nicely in XML.

	eg. the history (back/forward) button, can be simply implemented (and
shared with Nautilus) perhaps with something like:

<menuitem name="GoBack" verb="" id="GotoLocation" type="history"
 max_items="20">
	<placeholder>
	<menuitem name="1" id="http://www.foo.com" _label="foo.com"/>
	...
</menuitem>

	Or somesuch ? what do you want from such a thing.

	Also; I see with the shortcuts, you have:

	<label / icon> '<<' [text entry]

	clearly that's not going to do too well as a control either; what
requirements do you have for such things ? not being a galeon user I
have no feel for what is needed here, but clearly it'd be nice to have
that as a simpler built-in type that'll theme beautifully and be easier
to code. Would a special 'control' item with a 'popout' [ is that what
the  '<<' thing is ? ] button and a label/icon be sufficient for your
needs ?

	Anything else notably missing ?

	Thoughts / input (quick :-)

	Regards,

		Michael.
