I'd say that the behavior before this patch is the expected one.
Owen could you please confirm?

I think this may come down to a personal preference, which probably means that the proposed change belongs in IntranetUserCSS.

I don't think it looks beautiful when the toolbar buttons wrap, but I would prefer to have them wrap and be easily accessible rather than have to scroll horizontally to reach them.

Perhaps the question should be "Since the buttons wrap at smaller browser widths and it doesn't look great, how can we improve the appearance of the toolbar when the buttons /do/ wrap?" Solving that would bring us one small step closer to having a responsive staff client.

The toolbar still wraps with the new staff design, but opposed to the old design the second line starts in the same position as the first one, giving it a cleaner look than in the old design. 

I also think that avoiding horizontal scrolling is good because I feel that it hurts usability.

I am closing this one out, please reopen if you disagree!
