I think the extension icons are too far apart, wasting space in the address bar

Agreed. This feature could be similar to the Office 365 Touch/Mouse mode toggle.
This is an area I'll have to disagree with. I like the spacing of the icons on Edge. It keeps the browser from looking messy, compact, and is if everything is trying to be cramped or jammed in like Google's browsers. Especially if you're like me and have set your mouse arrow icon to be a larger size. In which case the mouse icon doesn't hover over three icons at once. My picture show's the comparison. Yellow bar is Edge Canary while blue bar is Chromium (the icon spacing in Chromium is also the same in Chrome). Edge looks more organized and not as if the browser is trying to cramp everything together.
I believe that the best would be if MS would allow custom setup for each user because as I see, most of us appeared to either agree or disagree, both of which could be resolved by MS letting each of us to make our own setup for icons. For example, I prefer to have a large number of icons in my toolbar, so that I can access whatever of them whenever I want. Therefore, I have deleted any descriptions of icons in order for them not to be wide. Also, this is why I would like them to be as narrow as possible. And finally, I would like that the icons can be changed to alternate icons.
