I just noticed that the category builder seems not to work when experimental mode is on. See screenshot.

When in "normal mode" all works as expected.

It works for me but like your screen shot shows the title bar is blank.

I think the @Builder has no ribbon yet and when ribbons are enabled it tries to fall back to the regular toolbar, but cannot load the icons. The buttons will work, though. Use the tooltips as hints.
If you need to use the Category Builder and don't like the missing icons, switch experimental mode of until I've created and added a ribbon.
Use the -ex=off command line argument, for example, to quickly switch.

I always think I've got them all, but then there is always another one I need to do.

I've created a ribbon for the next release. Not too complicated, only two buttons :)

Not sure about the first icon yet, though.

I would prefer the first button to show "execution" in stead of "workflow" or "settings".

To me, the left button seems to indicate that it opens some sort of settingspanel/menu. But it starts the execution of formula/query that was inserted. 

So not a big deal, but it could be a bit clearer (see for instance: https://www.shutterstock.com/nl/image-vector/execution-vector-icon-filled-flat-sign-2170889085).

I tried to match the icon to the Builder icon you see in the Category tree for the @Builder category.
I will start replacing the bitmap icons used in trees etc. with vectors next.

The shutter stock icon looks - to me - like "confirm configuration". It's also copyright protected of course.

Maybe I could just a simple green hook / check like used elsewhere (MD Panel, for example) ?
