Is it documented anywhere other than the gimprc file itself (and now this mailing list too!)? In other words, is it "discoverable"? As a long time user I'd sooner not waste that screen space either, but it would never have dawned on me to go poking around in gimprc if I hadn't just read your comment. I'm not sure I'd have figured out that the Wilber was supposed to represent a drop target, either - though the tooltip is admittedly a bit of a hint! :) > There is no UI for it, but that should be OK.

As far as I can tell, the toolbox doesn't currently respond to right-clicks at all, so perhaps it's worth considering a right-click menu with checkboxes to replace (or just complement) the contents of the Preferences dialog's "toolbox" page. That's how many programs, from the Windows taskbar, to web browsers, to OpenOffice.org, allow the visibility of optional UI elements to be set, so would probably be more in line with user expectations than checkboxes in an already-crowded dialog.
