Add a option to behave like component in another tool bar #10

Thank you for you provide the nice plugin. NppMenuSearch plugin always behaves as a individual tool bar now. Thus, unnecessary blank space appears when I use NppMenuSearch plugin with CustomizeToolBar plugin with enabling "wrap toolbar" option. It would be nice if NppMenuSearch plugin supports a option to behave like a component in another tool bar. menuseach1

I do not think this is possible in a stable way, since a Win32 toolbar cannot contain anything except toolbar buttons (IIRC):

I would have to insert invisible "fake" buttons to save space, somehow monitor their location when the window resizes, and then put the searchbox as a floaing window above that position.

If anything goes wrong, it would be a mess.

Closed, because I see no viable way to implement this.
