So we have the following options:
1. The number of titlebuttons displayed is entirely determined by the
TitleButton keyords in the look file. If there is a pixmap defined,
then the button will be shown - otherwise it will not be shown, even
if there is a binding in the feel file which references it. This is
how things are in 1.5beta5.
2. The number of titlebuttons displayed is entirely determined by the
Mouse keyords in the feel file. If there is a binding defined, then
the button will be shown - otherwise it will not be shown, even
if there is a pixmap defined for it. If there is no pixmap defined,
the button will be drawn without a pixmap.
3. The number of titlebuttons displayed is determined by the intersection
of the sets of buttons referenced in look and feel. Only if there is
both a binding, and a pixmap, will the button be shown.
I lean towards option 1, because it's already in place. :) Is this a big
issue with people? Should we change it?
