I think more comfortable would be sub-toolbars instead of menus. Or option to expand on toolbar most popular buttons (as classical editors have).

Wargo, I want to make sure that I understand this idea. Are you talking about drop-down menus like the one for list formatting?

Wargo (talkcontribs)

Yes, list, insert and maybe saving...

Whatamidoing (WMF) (talkcontribs)

Basically, it sounds like you want those to be displayed as a horizontal menu instead of a vertical one. Is that right?

Wargo (talkcontribs)

Yes, and without need to click to open these. Or consider ribbon?

Whatamidoing (WMF) (talkcontribs)

I think you'd have to click the menu open; otherwise, some people would see only the expanded menus, and have no room for editing articles.

Are you suggesting a Microsoft-style w:en:Ribbon (computing) approach as an alternative?

Wargo (talkcontribs)

Toolbars or ribbon. Option can be configurable, so, if someone needs more space, can choose default option.
