    Yes, that's true. I don't want to blow up PrefBar with too much buttons
    where most people don't know what to do with. In fact I'm also planning
    to move some of the built-in buttons out of PrefBar and add it to this
    page, to only keep features, most of the users need.

    ... and in the far, far future, PrefBar maybe comes with no buttons at
    all and will start up with an "Import wizard" which allowes to
    auto-download only the buttons, the user wants to have.
