I don't understand this argument at all.  We went from *4* buttons to  
*3* buttons.  Regardless of the translation, this decreases the chance  
the button bar will wrap in every single case.  Any particular  
translation may still wrap, but many others won't.

The more I tweak the smartmobile view, the more that Edit as New makes  
absolutely zero sense in the smartmobile view.  So this was the  
correct decision.
