Comment:

 [attachment:32678.diff] is a first-pass that attempts to cover the bare
 minimum here so that we can get something into 4.3 safely. The "admin"
 menu in the toolbar is intentionally built-out manually, so that plugins
 would be required to opt-in to having their links here by adding them via
 the admin bar API (and makes it a lot easier since there's not much of an
 API for the admin menu). Comments and Tools are excluded intentionally
 because comments have a top-level link in the admin bar and we've been
 thinking about removing tools at least as a top-level admin menu item for
 a while anyway. But if we added icons we'd probably want parity with the
 admin.

 It's easier to not have the icons for the admin menu items here (since
 they're submenus), but we could add those if we really want them. I also
 really like the idea of merging the WordPress icon in with the site title
 and killing the dashboard icon, but not sure if we're willing to lose that
 "About" menu in the process.

 @melchoyce is working on an icon for Customize - the current one is a
 placeholder but we may end up with something similar to it. Also need to
 think about the exact placement of the Customize link - it should be
 before edit since edit isn't always there, but we may want to put it
 before add new so that we don't split new from edit.
