Comment (by EusebiuOprinoiu):

 This is my current and ideal layout for the MCE Editor that I made with
 TinyMCE Advanced. The first row contains the buttons that I use on a daily
 basis and the second one those that I rarely use. Everything else was
 removed.

 I believe colors and font sizes don't have a place here because all they
 do is allow people to ruin even the best-designed themes.

 I am also a firm believer the H1 Heading doesn't have a place here as
 well. I saw many people using it multiple times in their post because "the
 text was bigger". Only titles should be H1 and this is done by the theme.
