Well, PDFs can indeed have more than 1000 pages, so those page number  
should be able to display (there was a bug report on that for a 1300+  
page document). Moreover page number don't need to be numbers, they  
can also be roman numerals like lxxxviii. Considering that, we've  
tried to be as economical as possible (unlike e.g. Preview).

The size of the side pane is sticky: when you change it, that should  
stick for newly opened files later on, also between launches. One  
caveat is that this only works for one of the documents, usually the  
first one that was opened (it would give a mess if all windows would  
compete for the preferences).
