Agreed. If PmWiki is using (:noleft:) and (:noright:) then we might as well call it RightBar -- it's simple, and not *that* confusing. I'm using SideBar and RightBar in my Bonny skin; if we agree to use that as a convention, I think that's good for users, since it enables them to be freer to change skins when chosing between those skins which provide a three-column layout (Gemini, FixFlow, Triad, Bonny and Stirling's new skin...).
