This must be implemented in gb.form.mdi.

How the toolbar works? At the moment, it just shows or hides its 
children. If it would modify the text or icon of its children, it would 
lost the data.

So I think something must be added to the ToolButton control: the 
ability to hide/show text and icon on demand.

Usually, the hide/show text/icon is global to the toolbar, but I find 
that really useless. This is something that should be enabled or 
disabled individually for each ToolButton.

What do you think?
