Feature request: default setting for collapsing the toolbar / application launcher #123

I'd love a way to make the toolbar be collapsed by default.

I took a look at this, but I didn't realize how complex the collapsing toolbar patch was. Not only does it add the collapse buttons, it makes the toolbar visible in screens where normally it wouldn't be - Mission Control, R&D, Astronaut Complex, etc. In those scenes the toolbar starts in the collapsed state.

For my own purposes, I'd mostly like to have this to use it in TPKSP, where we never need to use the toolbar and more screen real estate for the game would be nice. But that's certainly not a normal use case. My initial thought was that I would just make the toolbar remember its last state, so if you collapsed it then it would stay collapsed. That seems useful to everyone, and works for my case too.

But the above mentioned complexity makes this a bit tougher - do you need several settings, one for each screen that uses the toolbar?

Or perhaps it would be simpler to just have another setting that makes the toolbar always start collapsed.
