Comment(by garycmartin):

 Replying to [comment:1 erikos]:
 > Hmm, this one is difficult. Should we make the entry a minimum size so
 that more icons overflow in the portrait mode? The < > buttons I would not
 like to see overflowing. The favourite icon would maybe be ok or the home
 button, but that is already positioned at the left to the url entry.

 Nice though, it would help a little, but not enough to really make a
 difference.

 > Gary, suggestions please :)

 We should try and find a solution that helps the other activity cases as
 well. Suggestions so far range from having some Activities with custom
 portrait orientation toolbar layouts (trying to prioritise key features);
 or to changing the toolbar overflow behaviour so that the tools overflow
 in to a new secondary toolbar. This requires some design cycles, not
 something we have an obvious, quick, solution for right now.
