[Sugar-devel] Calculate toolbars work in progress shots

[Eben Eliason]

Looks great! The icons are quite nice.

My only suggestion is that (still retaining the modularity!) the misc
toolbar actually just be added as another secondary toolbar. That
leaves the basic toolbar mostly empty, but that's ok! This is an
instance, I think, where all of the basic functionality of the
calculator lives outside of the toolbar, and each toolbar adds
advanced functionality on top of that. Moreover, "misc" controls seem
to be the worst suited for a primary toolbar, which should instead
contain controls that are nearly always useful, or useful in all
contexts.
