To be honest -- I'd like to see this stuff ripped back out. I didn't see a
discussion of it anywhere and I think it's a regression in terms of
usability.
If I quickly glance at at toggle action I can distinguish:
[ ] Show Search Bar
[x] Show Search Bar
very quickly. It clearly visually indicates that it is a field with two
states and what its present state is. However with the options:
o Show Search Bar
o Hide Search Bar
I actually have to read the label, think about the current state, etc. It's
not visually distinguishable from a (often irreversible) action.
I also think this is bad for the show/hide toolbar widgets but didn't get
around to complaining until it's apparently made clear that this is meant to
be a pervasive change.
