awful Toolbar now holds several ootipns not found anywhere else, including Network Admin and Log Out, among others. I hated the Admin Bar/Toolbar when it was first introduced and now I use it all the time. It’s a fantastic bridge between the Dashboard and the front-end, IMO. OTOH, I don’t really like the new flyouts (especially when I don’t have a trackpad) but in time I’m sure I’ll come to appreciate them. Change affects us all differently.The point is, I don’t think this is about the Core team removing ootipns, I think it’s moreso about opening the door for more in the future. A fundamental of introducing new features is doing it in baby steps; Users will have more time to get acclimated. Get them used to seeing the Admin Bar in 3.2 then fully integrate it into the Dashboard in 3.3. At least now we don’t have the admin bar stacked on top of the header up there.
