This feature gives the user the ability to add and remove toolbar buttons, and top-level menu items.

Concept

The Main Control Toolbar and Main Menu are mostly static collections of toolbar buttons and menu items. Some buttons and menus are removed based on modules or security, but most of them remain regardless of the user or their use of the system.

The purpose of this new feature is giving the user the ability to add and remove toolbar buttons and top-level menus. Thus, if any user chooses sets of specific buttons and menus, the user will only see those selected ones as the toolbar buttons and main menu items, however the user always has the ability to change her/his selected sets of toolbar buttons and menu items.

If a user has not selected any toolbar buttons and menu items, the user will see whatever is selected by the administrator (if the user has the appropriate security rights and modules), and if the administrator has not chosen any, there are default toolbar buttons, and menu items which will be seen by the user. The user always has the ability to select her/his own sets of toolbar buttons and menu items.
