My Collapsing Console Sections plugin also puts a floating div on the left. So it sounds like there’s a need for a generalized “things that stick on the left” area for all these things to put UI elements into.

You can make block elements stick to the page relatively easily by adding "top-sticker" class (and inner "top-sticker-inner" element.) See the floating save button implementation for the details. With the breadcrumb + context menu change, the other thing we can do is to add one more extra item in the end of the breadcrumb that shows a drop-down menu, which is the navigation bar. I was experimenting that for the in-page navigation for the configuration page (or we can do both) 2012/2/24 FredG <[email protected]> One of the ideas that came up in the UI enhancements thread (https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/jenkinsci-users/mz0rJNTzqms <http://?fromgroups#%21topic/jenkinsci-users/mz0rJNTzqms> ) was an improvement for the navigation on the "Available Plugins" page. As the list of plugins grows bigger by the day, users might want to jump to a different plugin category with one click, instead of scroll down to it or want to search for a plugin in a searchbox. I'm pretty much done with a table of contents for all plugin categories that resides in the sidepanel of the "Available Plugins" page (see the attached screenshot). Before submitting a pull request I'd like to get some comments if this is the right way to go. Should the TOC always be visible (floating) while scrolling through the list?
