We have a few users that have trouble seeing smaller text so they zoom their screen in to the point it cuts off the right side of the navigation bar. This includes the gear menu and the global search.
I saw a post where you were able to move the update set out of the gear menu because as a developer you may be constantly switching between update sets and you need to see which one you are on in a glance.
I then took this idea and applied it to the homepage button, the printer friendly version button, and I even pulled the global search down and put it to the right of the users name.
This is an example of a demo site
This is where I ended up moving everything.
Attached is the Code for the Global UI script.
Mark Stanger did the original update set fix that you can find here.
