No I mean when clicking the "chevron", the toolbar would extend 
horizontally across the screen area, by using a special window 
overlaying the window which owns the toolbar. If the extended toolbar 
cannot show all the icons, eventually we can add another row of toolbar 
items just below, but in my opinion this second row possibility 
shouldn't be implemented because we shouldn't allow to have so many 
toolbar items.

Yes, it is the idea I'm talking about above but without reducing the 
size as you suggest.
