Execute a notebook cell with a SINGLE mouse-click?

Currently it takes two mouse-clicks to execute each cell in a DB notebook.

I know there is a keyboard shortcut (Ctrl+Enter) to execute the current cell

But is there a way to execute a cell with a single mouse-click?

I could use a greasemonkey script or Stylus snippet to modify the HTML client-side if needed.

Thanks. All I am looking for is a way to expand those three icons to appear on the toolbar itself instead of requiring a dropdown menu that eats up another click.

or at least the first button which is most frequently used

I am sure a simple tweak to JS/CSS or a setting that can be toggled on and off should allow this usability feature.

Please add this to the UI feature requests.
