    initial v1  
    77I understand the argument for the consistency with the sidebar menu, and consistency is a good instinct. But consistency should propagate the best pattern, not the oldest one. The sidebar's shared hover/focus style is a legacy of not having {{{:focus-visible}}}, and matching it doubles down on that legacy in a far more prominent surface instead of elevating everything to a new and better pattern.

    9 I'd propose: keep the strengthened indicator but scope it to {{{:focus-visible}}}, drop the {{{:hover}}}} rules, and take a proper design pass at the toolbar's hover and focus states for 7.2. That fixes the reported bug just as well, without changing what the toolbar looks like for every mouse user.
