Thanks for the kind words.
You can actually customize the WebLayout, but it is not intuitive.
To create a custom command, click on the document icon to the right.
Select the command that will be the base of your new command.
Click the Add button, select "Custom item" and select the newly created
command.
Ideas for improvement are greatly appreciated, and you may enter them here:
