Instead of destroying and recreating the buttons, just set the
PANEL_DISPLAY_ITEM attribute to FALSE.  The buttons will disappear.  You
can make them come back by setting the value to TRUE.  I don't know if
this will cause redisplay problems like the panel_destroy_item() routine.
I seem to recall having used this technique without any problems.
