How can I use an extended height Toolbar with menu navigation and actions centered vertically?

Question

I'd like to have a non-standard height toolbar which has centered buttons and navigation, but I can't get it to work. I use this example layout:

<Toolbar
    android:id="@+id/toolbar_regular"
    android:background="#777"
    android:layout_width="300dp"
    android:layout_height="100dp" />

And it ends up looking like this:

Per a conversation on G+ with Chris Banes, you can use minHeight to define the constrained height for actions and buttons. This value defaults to ?attr/actionBarSize on Toolbar. So, I used the layout

<Toolbar
    android:id="@+id/toolbar_regular"
    android:background="#777"
    android:minHeight="100dp"
    android:layout_width="300dp"
    android:layout_height="100dp" />

to get this appearance:
