I'm not sure if there's a proper way to address this issue (the same issue will impact users with various vertical tab management add-ons).

I feel like we might just consider it as acceptable behavior and mark as won't fix, as with all the pre-conditions (sidebar open, browser resized, spotlight modal displayed), the bug will only affect a sliver of the user base.
