Not fixed doesn't mean that it is not important. Perhaps some persons 
did not have time? Or perhaps some persons were not able to understand 
and fix the problems they found (like in my case?)

Agreed, but smoothing out some stuff here and there....

On my laptop today I cannot start *any* application even after a full, 
clean build of core. On my letux Grr throws exceptions. On both machines 
things worked enough to be of daily use about 1-2 months ago...

I'd love to have at least the toolbar issue resolved.
Windows is decent for me, except the "big black" GWorkspace issue.

I hope to gain more insight this Weekend, if not fixes, at least new 
information.
