I don't know much about the CSS part of TYPO3, so just tell me where to 
put the one line of CSS and I will update my patch.

The issue was created by Steffen Kamper a while ago. I would have set it 
to "trunk" only, but I don't have the permissions to do so. Could 
somebody set it to "trunk"?

To add the icons there, was the most simple solution I could think of.
Setting the width of the columns was just to prevent columns from 
getting to small so that the icons get weirdly arranged.

As the title of this post says, it's a "Request for commit" not an 
"order to commit". I just tried to make it look OK.
In my opinion it would be nice to arrange the copy/cut/paste icons on 
the right, the others on the left to get a visual separation.

I didn't discuss it with Jens or any other person.
If you ask me, it's OK to keep "less is more" in mind, but the current 
page module has obviously 2 problems regarding copy/paste:

- You can't paste content into an empty column
- You only can cut/copy/paste something if you know that you can click 
on the small icon which will open the clickmenu. Without knowing much 
about TYPO3, how should you be able to find that out??? This just annoys 
me, and placing the icons in the element header, was the best way I 
could think of to make the functions recognizable and the page module 
more "easy-to-use".


Anyway, this is only a first version of the patch...

Reinhard
