While I see how this would save some screen estate and reduce clutter
in the toolbox, I think that it would be very cumbersome to have to
click in two different places to select a tool. I'd like to see
tool-groups, as you suggest them, to be integrated into the toolbox,
not split between toolbox and tool-options dialog.

There are a few things you can do with the pressure options even if
you don't have a tablet. These are considered hacks however and I
agree that we should consider to move these settings elsewhere or at
least hide them when no special input devices are available.

This has been suggested before, there should be a bug-report for it.

The brush, pattern and gradient previews in the toolbox are redundant
and are scheduled for removal already. It's just a matter of doing it.
