Good idea. Increase the number of clicks to achieve the same
results even further. I already find the new "Around" dropdown
in the 3d header most disturbing.

Do you actually use Blender extensively and have you experienced
the impact on workflow of replacing 4 buttons next to each other 
with a dropdown list containing 4 options, or are you just an
"UI philosopher"? ;-)
