K. K. Subramaniam commented on SQ-470:
--------------------------------------

Why not use the collapse halo button for this purpose? When collapsed, the bar will become a small button that will restore it when clicked. Do we really need to waste space for a large button just to collapse the bar?

I can make a changeset if there is interest.

> I'm seeing a lot of people click the "hide toolbar" button to make it full screen.
> You see this icon used for that in several places (quicktime, etc).
> Can we get a more standard dock/undock icon instead?
> (the arrows clearly seem to point outside the toolbar space, suggesting more than what it does).
> Perhaps three small arrows pointing left (maybe with a vert line to the left of them) and a comparable icon for the other.
> This could potentially be a major source of confusion.
