Mandatory use of 'Waffle menu'.

Describe the solution you'd like

Would like option to choose which items are on the top bar with the balance in the waffle menu.

That seems to be the best for all users. I don’t find the mandatory search in the top bar of any use, ever. I click on a subset of apps many, many more times than I use a search.

Choice, please. 🥹

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Use the requested choice between top-bar items and the Waffle menu as the starting scope; done means users can configure which items appear in each place, rather than being required to use the current arrangement.
