It's not a matter of your suggestion being ignored. Open a new bug and clearly
outline what you are proposing. Andreas developed the Notebookbar UIs that we
use today. At the time we considered making a more visible option, but there
was no space available with all the commands you want to make visible, the
minimum resolution supported by LiBO means there are important constraints.
If you can think of a way to make it fit open a bug with that suggestion and a
mock-up please.
