UI Control of the Week: a PanelWithOverflow to create toolbars with overflow menus and maximum layout efficiency

Applications with toolbars should generally give the user access to all toolbar commands, even when the window isn't large enough to show all of them. Wrapping a toolbar's contents is one possibility, but this is usually avoided because it begins to steal too much space away from the application's main content area. The standard technique is to have the commands which can't fit horizontally overflow into a dropdown menu.
