I don't agree. If they open the list dialog, chances
are they
want to do something that they can't do with the
toolbar
(!= "complex").
In fact, they usually open the list dialog to do
trivial things.
By instance, when my girlfriend uses the dialog, it's
usually
because she want to do a list with a funny symbol, or
she
just wants to do a
a) xxx
b) xxx
c) xxx
list.
