+Good that's excellent.
+
+May I suggest a basic default toolbar?
+
+HOME,BACK,FORWARDS,UP,RELOAD,FIND,SPLIT,Show Hidden Files
+
+I see no reason to add anything that is in the context menu.
+
+Also:-
+May I suggest that the icon view is NOT the default and that the details 
+view be made default. I really can't imagine that anyone who uses 
+dolphin for anything serious would use the icon view, as long filenames 
+get truncated. It gets quite tedious changing it for both root and 
+normal user on each fresh installation.
+
+Just my 2 cents ;)
