Is there anything else that needs to be done to get this package on
ELPA?  I'd like to use this package on older Emacsen as well.
It just has to be added to ELPA, but that is a one-line patch to
elpa.git.  Here is the tarball I generated locally:
Can you confirm that it looks alright and works on older systems
(use
M-x package-install-file)?

Confirmed, just tested it! It worked fine on Emacs 29.1 the package's
minimum supported version.

Regarding that point, I didn't follow the thread in detail, but why is
29.1 the minimum version?  package-lint indicates that it should be
compatible with 27.1, but it might be missing something.

Only because that was the version I used regularly when I started writing this. I plan to extend support to earlier Emacs versions in a future version of this package. I'm just waiting on squaring away this first step before working on any updates. :)

I was hoping documentation could just stay in the core Emacs manual.
window-tool-bar is a core package and I was hoping to document it next
to existing documentation on the existing (frame) tool bar.  Does that
seem reasonable?

Sure, in that case the core should just link to the specific Info node.
As soon as the manual is updated on the gnu.org website I'd also add a
HTTP link for people previewing the package to be able to see as well.

I'm not quite sure what change you're looking for here. Let's assume I've added an info node "(emacs)Window Tool Bar" that is also a function index for global-window-tool-bar-mode, where do you think I should mention this link?

Otherwise, I'll add the package to ELPA now, and I hope it will appear
on the site in a few hours.

Yup, I see it! Thanks!
