I'm sorry to come nagging right now, but i started sodipodi recently, and discovered, that i like the zoom tool options floating around all the time. woul�d it be a big conceptual problem, for all this toolbars to be individualy dispacheble?
Generally leaving a tool options panel on when the tool is not active would be a problem. But most zoom panel buttons are not really tool specific, they're global verbs, and they're in that panel simply because we did not have another. When I add a Commands panel at the top we can move some of the most commonly used zoom buttons to it. Which ones you use the most?

Can two toolbars be placed end to end yet? (I dont recall being able to do so with GTK widgets in the past or with any of the applications i randomly tested with)
Rather than trying to fit everything into a single standard toolbar (which if crowded wont fit on small displays) it would be better to have a few smaller logically organised toolbars (which wont look good on large displays unless they can be put end to end on the same row).
An alternative approach might be to somehow add these features to the Zoom box that is permanently embedded in the status bar.
