Yes you can do all this by editting your AbiWord.Profile in version
0.9.6.1.
In fact in the Unix builds you can drag and drop toolbar icons anywhere
you like including removing them altogether. I believe this will be
implemented for windows eventually.
In any case abiword allows you to as many or as few buttons on your
toolbars as you like.
