Per item 1 in the usability discussion documented below we need a UI spec
addressing all the subitems listed under item 1.  See:
<http://www.mozilla.org/xpapps/sidebar/proposals/usability.html>

Marlon, when do you think you'll be able to supply this to engineering so we can
incorporate it into our plan?  Thanks.

i think we hit this issue, see implementable checklist summary soon.
Target Milestone: --- → mozilla0.9.9
the one open issue is - search sidebar discreetness.  samir, do you feel
confident that the other issues on that list are getting taken care of at this
point?  If so can we close this bug and open a new one, or retarget this to hit
the one item we have left?
->1.0
Target Milestone: mozilla0.9.9 → mozilla1.0
Moving Netscape owned 0.9.9 and 1.0 bugs that don't have an nsbeta1, nsbeta1+,
topembed, topembed+, Mozilla0.9.9+ or Mozilla1.0+ keyword.  Please send any
questions or feedback about this to adt@netscape.com.  You can search for
"Moving bugs not scheduled for a project" to quickly delete this bugmail.
Target Milestone: mozilla1.0 → mozilla1.2
i'm pretty sure someone already resolved the relevant bug as wontfix which 
would imply a magical spec was conjured up...
Marlon, 
Unfortunately we haven't yet addressed a design to eliminate hidden vs.
collapsed states.  If the splitter still exists (and the new personal toolbar
button which is only an idea at this point) then we still need to address
whether to remove the grippy.  Also, does this mean we remove the close button
to reduce states?  These are the open-ended issues.

MASS-CHANGE:
This bug report is registered in the SeaMonkey product, but has been without a comment since the inception of the SeaMonkey project. This means that it was logged against the old Mozilla suite and we cannot determine that it's still valid for the current SeaMonkey suite. Because of this, we are setting it to an UNCONFIRMED state.

If you can confirm that this report still applies to current SeaMonkey 2.x nightly builds, please set it back to the NEW state along with a comment on how you reproduced it on what Build ID, or if it's an enhancement request, why it's still worth implementing and in what way.
If you can confirm that the report doesn't apply to current SeaMonkey 2.x nightly builds, please set it to the appropriate RESOLVED state (WORKSFORME, INVALID, WONTFIX, or similar).
If no action happens within the next few months, we move this bug report to an EXPIRED state.
