Great!  Just downloaded and installed it and it works perfectly (as 
usual!). 
One thing I was wondering about.... The toolbar is now customised by 
editing the ui_toolbar.xml file (rather than using checkboxes in the 
"Edit/Preferences" menu, as previously done).  Is there a particular 
reason for this?  Just wondering..... :)
