Screenshot: sidebar moved from right, to left

Compare the screenshot at bug 262270 comment 0 with the shot attached here. 

Moving the sidebar from right, to left, will (at least) alleviate the
accessibility aspect of 262270. 

More generally
==============

From <https://forums.freebsd.org/posts/549007>: 

> One collapsible sidebar: OK
> 
> Two sidebars, with or without collapse: less usable.
> 
> Two sidebars at a **distance** from each other: far less usable, and the 
> negative effect of distance is worse whenever the user aims to perform 
> dual actions involving both sidebars. Actions such as scrolling, 
> clicking, collapsing, whatever … IMHO it's simply not good UX.
> 
> (This is the reason for me having a user style that aims to keep 
> the two sidebars **adjacent** to each other.)
