Comment:

 So I'm including a rough draft of a patch to utilize the WP Admin Bar.
 There are two approaches that can be taken. One option is to just use the
 API ($wp_admin_bar->add_menu()/$wp_admin_bar->remove_menu()/various hooks)
 to add and remove menus however we need. The approach I've used in the
 patch uses the WP filter that allows you to create your own class.
 Extending isn't an option currently. In order to extend, we need a hook in
 WP to include early enough for success... Unless of course I totally
 missed something. I chose a new class as the course of action, because it
 would allow us to control the search form that's added by default, as it
 only searches posts and pages. It's commented out for now. There are a few
 design decisions that need to be made. One being the search form, and
 related to that is the "Random (item)" menu. On the original buddybar the
 random menu is aligned right. There are a few other things, but my brain
 is fried, and I'm sure you'll come across things. There's a lot of code
 cleanup that can happen. To start though, I just wanted to get it working
 and make sure the devs/community were okay with the approach before I went
 through and cleaned.
