The ones that are not related to the Layout could be moved to the Preferences->Look & feel->Tag browser and the Alter Tag browser button could be removed from the Tag browser.
There could be different sub-menus in the Layout drop down menu for the different part of the main window as well, the Toolbar, the Search bar and the Book details.

Many users, such as me, only show the Tag browser as and when needed. It makes much more sense to have everything related to the Tag Browser accessible from the Tag Browser.
The Layout icon has a well defined purpose - to control the appearance of the main window, I suggest we leave it at that. I note that the 2.99.12 Layout menu has
Show whatever when
whatever is hidden, and
Hide whatever when
whatever is showing

Kovid - IMO the Layout button should have a better icon, I suggest something resembling attached screen shot.
And....... we could have a Preferences button next to it. Then Preferences wouldn't consume space in toolbars and menus, and it would always be available - even if one had no tool or menu bars.
