1) Do nothing and/or try to inform them somewhere
2) Delete their toolbar and force the new default on them.
3) Insert the new toolbar item somewhere into the toolbar.
#1 is likely most common.
#2 is asking for complaints.
#3 probably isn't a bad idea if you're certain the majority of users would want to use the new item.
(For 2 and 3, you need to save the version number of the app into preferences. That way you can compare the current and previous version to know if they've launched a new one, and then take some action.)
