Well this is the plan, but this will be possible only when I make more 
contextive actions (still poor)
and multi-layer (not even pre-coded yet)

yes, you're right.

The ideal for me is the same for you: clean interface . we only disagree in the 
way. I prefer to use standard widget right now to
save jmb actions, until we have the multi-layer jmb and more contextive action 
handling. I used the splitter because it looked fine to me. But
if you want to put some temporary jmb actions, its fine. We surely will have to 
review them when implementd the Multi-layer jmb.

absolutely :-)
