It is currently used by the RichTextEditor control to handle the button layouts. You could file a bug/enhancement request at http://bugs.adobe.com/flex/ and post the bug number here so a few people can vote/subscribe to the issue. Peter Ryan Stawarz,

One thing that scares me though is the lack of Documentation of the mx:ToolBar component... where does this component live? I can't find it in the AS3 documentation (http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/langref/index.html)... is ToolBar something I should be using - or is Adobe going to yank it from me just when I need it most? yes… turns out that my applicationcontrol bar was given a height of 50 via a style, and hence it didn’t work so well.

A simple workaround would be creating a class that inherits ToolBar class, then use the new class as the control.
