I personally like the approach taken by Chrome, in that it has a vertical ellipsis menu with the dock options. Having two separate buttons for docking state seems wasteful. Personally, I so very rarely switch from dock-right to something else, so I'd prefer having more space for the tabs or other buttons (like the element picker perhaps).
