Object menu and toolbar

For added consistency and ease of use across the entire application, the Object menu and Object toolbar are always available. In the DB Navigator, the Object menu and toolbar replace the Navigator toolbar and pop-up menus. The actions listed in the Object menu and toolbar are context-sensitive: they are always relevant to the currently selected objects in the current window — for example, the current tree node, list item or database object.
