Well, thanks for all the good feedback.
I have to agree with most of it - this piece ended being a bad decision,
and of course adding some adornments ended up making it a bad idea with a
pretty background (or as an old saying where I live would put it, You can
put lipstick on a pig, but it is still a pig).
Anyway - will scratch that piece and try to focus on the Toolbar change.
Will keep you posted.
Best wishes,
Drew

Yep, I agree! Drew, it's a great idea and thanks for working on it, but
I think we need to focus on one thing at a time with the messaging.
Otherwise people may get the idea that LibreOffice is too complicated,
can't decide on a cohesive interface etc.
The NotebookBar is going to be a big deal for LO 6.2, so we need to
focus on one or two variants of it and say:
* What it is (a new, OPTIONAL user interface design -- we're not
changing everything! Otherwise we'll get a huge amount of angry comments
on social media ;-) )
* Why it's great (work with items in context, faster workflow etc.)
* How to try it -- and super important, how to go back!
IMO we need to simultaneously communicate that LibreOffice 6.2 has the
same reliable, trusted, familiar user interface as previous releases,
but is also modern, forward-looking and adaptable. This isn't easy, but
if we do it right and not overload people with lots of information and
screenshots, I think we can make it work...
