I discovered a hack that works well until this is fixed. It would seem that the toolbar is actually a separate application that Teams calls when you share in a meeting so if you click on the toolbar, you can then press ALT-F4 or CTRL-W (shortcuts to close the running application) and it closes just the toolbar. This works great so long as you don't need to "Give Control" or "Annotate" during the session, as those functions seems to be only available in the toolbar, hence it running as a separate application. All the other functions are still available in the main Teams window.

Thanks RK_CHS! I will definitely try the ALT-F4 to close the Teams Screen Share Bar. Very strange that it simply doesn't have a handle to move it over, or make it collapse-able... on the top of my list for most annoying "features" of Teams.
