Well, look almost the same, docking aside :P (BTW who still uses tiffs?)

I concur with some customisation, but IMHO the important thing is to have ALL the toolbar commands in the menus... I think every interface guideline says so :P

For example, in eeschema, to use Page Settings, Library Editor, Library Browser, hierarchy navigator, clipboard ops, netlist, annotation, drc and bom are not in the menu (and this is only the top toolbar :D)

Maybe this way will be easier to add accelerator keys (or whatever wx call them...). W and A for wire and components are useful (I mostly use the keyboard :P), R.X.Y is mandatory (BTW why can't you R over a label?:(, other keyboard operation would be useful (I don't know wx but Gtk has that wonderful system to apply shortcuts on the fly while using menus...)
