If a user needs room for their document, then they should use the zoom slider
to obtain more space or click on the sidebar tabs to close the sidebar pane,
not resize the sidebar so that sidebar content gets cropped. Its not even
possible to shrink down the properties tab once its at its minimum size.

If you resize the formula sidebar tab similar to heiko's screenshot and then
jump to the properties tab, you'll be able to see two or three buttons from it
per row, which means you'll have to resize the tab so you can see all its
content, as the tab isnt functional/useful if all its contents arent visible.
This is why having a fixed sidebar width that all sidebar tabs can fit
comfortably in is what i prefer rather than sidebar tab sizes constantly
bouncing around or having their content cropped.
