Check.

That's not true for Cocoa's NSToolbar. You can validate individual
items, though, if you meant that.

Wasn't true until MacOS X 10.2, IIRC.

Not true at all on MacOS X. You can show/hide it, You can switch
between Text & Icons, Text Only or Icons Only, and you can switch
between two sizes. But you can't tear it off, nor can you make vertical
NSToolbars.

This is actually supported in MacOS X's NSToolbar, and used in many
Preferences windows on the Mac to switch between the panes. In 10.3 they
even added a "selectable items" list and a way to get/set the selected
item, which is then highlighted with a grey background.
Just clarifying,
