Bug Description

Binary package hint: tomboy

Using Tomboy 0.14.0 on Xfce 4 Desktop Environment version 4.6.0 (Xfce 4.6),

I would like to be able to use the keyboard accelerator keys to access the toolbar buttons even when they are set to display only as icons.

---- more information ----

To conserve "screen real estate", I set the Xfce Appearance Settings' Toolbar Style to "Icons". Now I am no longer able to use ALT+t to get the Text menu in Tomboy.

Wishlist: Provide an (optional?) way to allow use of accelerator keys when only icons are shown on the toolbar. For example, in the Appearance Settings section, under Toolbar Style, add an option:
 "Enable accelerators on Toolbars"
This checkbox would then automatically be selected whenever a user chooses an option that would display text and would automatically disable whenever a user chose Icons-only. That way the current, default behavior would remain.
