We have such a nice modular design with panels yet we keep cramming everything in the places panel... Why? It's not just here, I've seen patches like this for Dolphin as well. Imho, the places panel should only contain the top places - favorites if you will - that you might want to access quickly. Nothing else and should stay small. Baloo -> new panel Devices -> new panel Remote devices -> Either in Devices or a new panel as well etc.. Having more panels will give a whole different issues. Scrolling. Since each panel would be relatively small if you add many you will get scrollbars within the panels. Well, lets just get rid of the per panel scrollbar and merely have one for the whole "panel container" (like in macOS finder). Just my 5 cents...
