How about two regular old HTML lists with "Add" and "Remove" buttons between
the two?
The left list is all possible sidebar pieces, the right list is all chosen
sidebar pieces.
Next to the right-hand list are up and down arrow buttons (one above the
other) for moving the chosen pieces up or down the list.
Between the two is a button Config that then makes visible the familiar
little config pane for that particular sidebar component further to the
side.


(ALL)            (Chosen)        (Config Pane)
-----            -----   Up      -----
-   -   Add      -   -   Config  -   -
-   -   Remove   -   -   Down    -   -
-----            -----           -----

Mmm... nice reorg. It does make the workings of some of the panes feel
a little clunky in some ways (there *has* to be a better way than drag
and drop for managing the sidebar!), and I'm not entirely convinced by
the placing of some of the panes (surely textfilters belong somewhere
under the look and feel pane, for instance), but the basic
organization does seem to make a good deal more sense than what's
there already. If I don't get beaten to the punch I'll most likely be
applying this patch in the near future.
