Be careful in this case to not cause a user experience regression. It isn't
obvious that the header can be clicked to expand (or collapse) the content.

Making the header clickable as a whole is imho a nice option, and it's great
that makeCollapsible supports this already (by using the header itself as a
custom toggle). However, depending on how your custom toggle is styled, there
should imho be a separate toggle or other kind of user interface component to
indicate collapsibility.
