See little need to make the effort to reduce the padding.  Our minimum
"supported" display is now 1024x768, with minimum vertical UI size of 661
pixels. A much greater concern is icon handling for HiDPI monitors that has
seen us implement support for SVG icons with caching for bug 51733.

Might be feasible to implement use of SVG for a down scaled UI, with reduced
padding around the toolbar buttons, but not clear it is worth the dev effort.
Especially as we provide the MUFFIN Single toolbar mode (reduced contextual
activity and vertical button bar for overflow).

@Tomaž? Adolfo?
