This sounds like a good result.  I do think that auto-hiding the window 
tool bar when tool-bar-map is nil is very valuable and is 
straightforward to implement.

I have attached a new documentation patch describing the intended 
behavior.  If this looks good to you I can draft a patch to 
window-tool-bar.el based on all the feedback thus far.

Thanks
