Bug Description
Hello,
I'm looking about top bar and I see that we're wasting a lot of space for blank things. Date and time is good, because there are items from calendar, Network also.
But look at Rotating and Files parts - that two are used a fewer (and there is a lot of blank space from middle to bottom part) and because of them there is more labels to swipe left-right. I know that them are really important also and must be there, but maybe we should consider re-design top bar to be more useful and simply? Swiping is cool, but here unnecessarily increases the number of steps to achieve the effect.
Also maybe connect Bluetooth with Network?
Maybe below arrangement would be better:
|__Plane mode___
|__Telephony network_________|
|__WiFi_
|______
I mean putting WiFi and Bluetooth part on one page/bar divided left/right sides in half of screen.

I agree on this one.
Files should share space with Notifications while rotation lock should be moved somewhere else (not sure where though, I use it a lot).
A future Torch switch could join rotation lock at least.
