Yes.

Yes, although it might be that the setting should be controlled by an
item in a "View->Configure Toolbar..." dialog box.  (That's the Mac OS X
convention for configuring toolbars, although I don't remember whether
it has a text/icons/both option in any applications; I don't know
whether that convention is used by Windows or by any of the major
UNIX+X11 toolkits/desktop environments.)
