Toolbar Actions

Toolbar has buttons for the most common application actions. Some of these actions have keyboard shortcuts. Some actions can be disabled at some moment of time: this action can be non-applicable for the current tab or for the current application state. Usually the action disable reason is shown in the toolbar button tooltip.
