* implementation in sugar-toolkit
* implementation in sugar-toolkit
* use new toolbars in Journal
* provide API in sugar.activity.activity for new toolbars
 
One option for new API is supporting bunch of methods to create most useful toolitems/sub-toolbars. (see [http://git.sugarlabs.org/projects/write/repos/toolbars/blobs/master/AbiWordActivity.py#line58] for example usage).
* ''activity.toolbar()'' toolbutton with activity sub-toolbar
* ''activity.stop_button()''
* ''activity.undo_button()''
* ''activity.redo_button()''
* ''activity.copy_button()''
* ''activity.paste_button()''
