Hei Christopher,

as Larry has users he knows while I don't ;) - I go with him.
However, I see option 2 (having it as an extra open menu icon) optional 
(if I understood correctly).
But - rule no 1 holds: start with the most simplest first, and then we 
gradually improve. So if you think 3 is most easy to achieve - then we 
go with that.
