How about weighted sorting for some uppermost 2-5 flexible entries?  Using a 
certain layer mode adds weight to that mode, and each mode loses some weight 
again for each action.  I think that that's more or less how desktop 
environments manage their most used applications.

Do you think that would be less annoying?

Another problem (imho) would simply be the added length to that list, which is 
longer than what feels good to me now already.
