What is a Plain View, and how can I make it Plainer?

When I click on View > New Plain View, I get a view that contains:
Menubar: File, Edit, Search, etc.
Toolbar: <<= =>>
Buffer Switcher [If I have it on]
Buffer Tabs
==== ruler =====
Text Area
The strange <<= and =>> in the Toolbar are not part of the configured list when I view Global Options. They don't seem to actually do anything (clicking does nothing). In fact, they look like pale gray versions of the black Back and Forward buttons in the help browser.
How can I make them, and the whole toolbar, disappear?
How can I make the buffer tabs and/or the buffer switcher disappear on "Plain Views" but not on my Main view?
Ideally, I'd like the buffer name in the window bar, a ruler, and the text area, and nothing else. Absent that, I'd accept a File/Edit menubar. But that's PLAIN. I want PLAIN. I sure don't want a half inch of empty space with two dead buttons in it.
Comment?
