I see the strings being added to the toolbar with

   LPWSTR szBuf = HH_LoadString(buttons[dwIndex].idCommand);
   ...
   buttons[dwIndex].iString = (DWORD)SendMessageW(hToolbar, TB_ADDSTRINGW, 0, (LPARAM)szBuf);

But from there it's not clear to me they whether they will be used or 
not. Did you specifically mean that only Jump1/2 would not be used or 
does that apply to the other IDTB_XXX strings too?

And if they are never shown to the user should be no issue with removing 
them, right? (or replacing them with hardcoded strings in the source)
