it is very clear to me that every people subscribing to this list are
most probably power users. John Doe's preoccupations aren't on a UX
angle, at least on the beginning (until he becomes a power user ;)

I've made at least two proposals in this thread about this question:

1. Don't get rid of the three-button thingy and place it at the *top* of
the vertical scrollbar, where the mouse travel is shorter.

-> this keeps the Navigation buttons

2. Transfer the navigation buttons/bar to the Search bar, as navigating
is somewhat searching, thus quite similar in intend from the user.

-> I'd received one only (negative) answer which motivations are unclear
to me.


So, to summarize this discussion so far, the consensus you'd asked for
is either "don't touch that" or "transfert the functionality to some
place where John Doe can find it as easily as he would now". My two
proposals above are going that route.
