Will the plugins menu ever be cleaned up?



It’s absolutely pointless and redundant for a plugin with a single button to have it’s own toolbar, and it consumes a lot of space. The different-sized buttons and glitchy dropdowns make this menu ugly and difficult to use.

Suggestions:

  • Toolbars that contain only one button should be hidden from view. These buttons are instead all grouped together at the left side in a dedicated toolbar
