VisualEditor: don't display all tools by default to new editors
Closed, InvalidPublic

Description

en.wp user Ruud Koot suggests that certain tools, such as underline and font colour (bug 52645) that are not normally wanted/needed in articles shouldn't be available to new editors.

Personally I think everything should be available (this avoids the need for new classes of editor permissions) but just not shown by default. What is shown/not shown by default needs to be configurable on-wiki per wiki (and possibly per namespace).
