No -that one behaves nicely, no matter how i resize the window in Chrome 
(or Firefox or Safari).  NB: The problem in yours is no problem, of course, 
when Story View is wide enough to accommodate each row in table on a line 
or two; it's when content of row spills onto a 3rd line that the table 
spills over the sidebar.  /w

True enough, i guess, for a non-technical user... But in STN view, i spent 
too much time trying to understand the nature of those relations (i.e. the 
logic that caused them to appear as either Source Topic Note -or some 
combination even (?)), which caused me a bit of cognitive overload.
