FWIW, I argued against the admin bar within the lead dev group right up
until we launched it, saying it should stay a plugin and that people
would hate it with a passion (largely because I and a handful of
contributing developers did). I was forced to eat some serious crow
after monitoring the @wordpress twitter account.... mentions almost
universally loved the admin bar, as Matt predicted. The few complaints
about it were from control freaks like me or developers (i.e., control
freaks like me, ha). Also, I've been won over myself. I set up a
WordPress install for a neighbor/small business owner, and having her
click the Edit Page button is a much simpler ramp up for a new user than
the old 'open a new tab and type in wp-admin' or dual-bookmark system.
