First of all, great job and thank you, I support your job and tell my friends to do the same. :)
Here is my suggestion (sorry for my English, I'm not a native speaker and since my windows language is not English, I'm not sure the menu names are exactly the same as I will translate them).

I use windows 8 mainly on 1366x768 laptops, so i always try to have the more vertical space I can, that's why my start bar is on the right, not on the bottom as usual. sometimes i need to share the space between 2 different windows, that's why i often hide the start menu.
i have to right click the bar, than click on options, then toggle the "automatically hide" option and click ok. when i'm done using two different programs at the same time i have to make it reappear going to the right border, right click, options, toggle the same option and ok again.

Is it possible to customize the start bar with a toggle, a switch an icon or something else to do this thing with just one click instead of 4? i would be great if you can add such a feature. :)

thank you.

If by Start bar, you mean the Windows TASK bar, then that is not something Classic Shell modifies the behavior of. Classic Shell only adds a Start button to the taskbar or can make it opaque. Once the taskbar is set to auto hide, a way to show it by mouse is to move the mouse to the edge of the screen where the taskbar is. Or you can hit Win key to show the Start menu or Win+T to show the taskbar only without opening the Start menu.
