I agree but we have "lots" of navigational stuff so we just have to make
them not collide with keybindings.

Epiphany uses CTRL-R for refresh so I adopted that too and the other
Refresh stuff (Selected and category) I picked whatever corresponds to
their mnemonic CTRL-S for selected, and CTRL-C for category. As for the
others, I'm not sure if there's any criteria on picking their
keybindings or if they have changed at all.

Yeah, that "was" my reasoning. The toolbar, IMO, is specific for "Most
Widely Used Tool(s)" but adding the selector[1] to it doesn't look too
bad at all, I think.

Let me know if you're happy with it :)
