But wouldn't it be best to at least aim at having icons and buttons that can
be added *by the user* if they use that feature often? When I was writing my
physics dissertation I defined shortcuts and toolbar buttons for equation
editing, symbol insertion and quick picture insertion. User-definable
toolbars strikes me as a laudable long-term goal that can be aimed at with
these buttons. They don't necessarily have to make it in the default
version, but their existence is not, in itself, a bad thing.
