I've been working on reducing the toolbar to a single row of (small) buttons, instead of the large row on top, and the smaller row(s) below that. While working on doing this, I noticed it's not as easy as I hoped, because some rows disable themselves completely when no region was focused, even though I only wanted to have a few buttons disabled and keep the rest active.

Maybe this is something to look into, especially since screen real-estate is quite important on smaller devises (like the Macbook Air), and having this huge toolbar on top feels very wrong (and windows-like, if you don't mind me saying).
