I was thinking about Left, Right, Top, Bottom etc. Also maybe view
selected and view local/global toggle. This can be done as 2 rows of
small icons.
But you mentioned buttons on the viewport itself. I actually like that

guess it doesn't really fit in Blender's UI since we have the window
header and the toolbar.
