Keep the sidebar open in the CMS page editor

Hi HubSpot Devs, can you please look into adding an option to keep the sidebar open in the website page editor?

 

The constant layout shifting as you click into different sections creates a really frustrating editing experience, especially on smaller displays.

I agree it would be nice if the sidebar could remain open, this is especially helpful when training clients or recording a demo. The constant shifting causes me to constantly click the wrong thing.

Here's another instance where this is actually very frustrating: tables in Rich Text modules. 

Resizing columns is impossible without the sidebar being toggled. You drag one column divider > sidebar closes on its own > have to click into the rich text module > sidebar opens again > resize another column divider > sidebar closes again > rinse repeat.
