Not that this means a whole lot to me ... but what happens if I
were to customize my toolbars so that only two of the current
three toolbars are showing. I'm guessing that this will hide
all the toolbars and rulers ... but then what happens when you
revert back? Do I automatically go back to having two toolbars
or do I have all three?
