Move the spaz menu to an icon.

Reported by Tim Millwood | May 8th, 2010 @ 12:44 PM | in Version 0.10

I think the spaz menu being on the app title is a little odd and should be on an icon.

I have attached a very rough mockup, removing the arrow from the title and adding an extra icon, maybe a cog or something makes sense?

I'm a fan. A cog icon makes sense, though it should also have a down arrow to indicate that it'll reveal a Tools menu; see the attachment.

That icon bar is getting really bloated, though. Might be worth replacing the Prefs icon (tab) with the Tools menu icon, and accessing Prefs only through that menu instead; there's already such an item in there. Normal people change prefs infrequently.

Before burying prefs, though, one prerequisite is to make it dead simple for new Spaz users to add their first Twitter/etc account: https://spaz.lighthouseapp.com/projects/32566-spaz/tickets/42-impro...

I like this idea, and Ron's proposal, a lot.
