The "Activity" tool bar is selected for most activities. I always have to
click on another toolbar tab to get a toolbar that will perform the most
basic functionality. For example, the Browse activity opens with the
Activity tool bar selected. I *always* have to change to the Browse
toolbar so I can enter a URL.
I would propose that the HIG require that most used features of an
activity be accessible immediately in the tool bar. A user should not
have to do the extra step of finding the toolbar with the action they want
if that action is normal workflow.
I would also suggest that the buttons in the Activity toolbar be
persistent is some way. Either they always are in the tool bar, or they
are in a seperate area that is alway available.
