I have 2 to 5 depending on the size of the window. Instead of all five
reflexively changing size relative to the window size, they do what
the main Xfce4 desktop toolbar does, for example. They become silently
hidden behind a drop-down arrow. Or in the case of PulseAudio, a
drop-left AND drop-right arrow. :)

Neither one is 100% *cognitively friendly*, but no, I don't know of an
alternative that would improve the experience.

Well, no, wait.... Yes, in fact I do know of an alternative. It would
help if the buttons continued to shrink down reflexively so that all
could fit in *visibly* together.

No, not everyone would like that. That part could be addressed by a
wish list item that asks for a  preference menu toggle switch to turn
that type of feature on and off..... :)

My own personal experience is just a fact of #Life related to second
by second memory loss issues. To this very day after YEARS of the
same, I'll STILL lose at least a few seconds *EVERY SINGLE DAY*
wondering where any given window's "button" wandered off to on that
top desktop wide toolbar. That "button" will be there, I will just
have forgotten YET AGAIN to see if a "drop-down" button  hasn't very
quietly and *necessarily* appeared to the far right (in my particular
Xfce4 use case).

Just thinking out loud.... :)
