 * This is simply a request for some Core Developer Advice…Not a complaint:
 * I really like the WYSIWYG editor and sometimes would like to add extra buttons
   added to TinyMCE. The problem (and maybe others won’t share my point of view)
   is that when I review several available plugins, they end up offering everything
   but the kitchen sink (overkill). Currently I have this plugin installed: [https://wordpress.org/plugins/tinymce-unrestrictor/screenshots](https://wordpress.org/plugins/tinymce-unrestrictor/screenshots)
   which works fine; but now I want to substitures Buttons instead of clickable 
   links.
 * Here are two plugins I found in the Plugin Directory: [https://wordpress.org/plugins/tinymce-advanced/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/tinymce-advanced/)
   
   [https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-edit/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-edit/)
   BUT they also seem to be Overkill.
 * Can the Core Developers revisit the TinyMCE Default Component, and possibly add
   some additional buttons without the necessity of plugins and overkill?

 * Maybe this is what I’m looking for and its components seem to be leaner: [https://wordpress.org/plugins/buttons-shortcode-and-widget/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/buttons-shortcode-and-widget/).
 * As Microsoft and WordPress continue to move towards Mobile First Design, and 
   touchscreens take over more Mobile devices (including laptops), I would think
   that simple Buttons Creation integration into the TinyMCE editor would become
   more useful for a larger number of WordPress end users, than going through the
   efforts of sifting through the Plugins Directory.
 * Just a thought…
