[Qgis-developer] User profiles

[G. Allegri]

My 2 cents.
I agree with all of you about the need to remove some default toolbars.
Following the proposal of Werner, what about having a "View" menu, where
the user can choose which toolbars activate and not? And as an improvement
to this, one could provide a system to "Add custom buttons" to the toolbar
space.
