--- Comment #5 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
Agree with the suggestion to reposition the vertical scroll bar and attach to
the outer edge of the frame where it would benefit from activation using its
"infinite size". I.e. reposition outboard of the current default Sidebar
attachment.

But IMHO perceive no compelling reason to also reposition Sidebar to left edge
of frame. Neither is there a requirement to attach Sidebar to right edge of the
LO frame.  

So, in a practical sense believe the Sidebar's Show/Hide toggle would function
equally well if the collapsed position was left of the vertical scroll bar. Its
button is not sensitive to the frame edge, and so must be targeted rather than
swiped. 

That works equally well at the frame edge or as suggested inboard of the scroll
bar--which as noted can be swiped into focus.

A reasonable enhancement.
