That would be cool. The point is, really, IMHO, on this entire issue, to allow a variety of options that are easily customizable for anyone who wants such an option, be it a wider writing area or a sidebar with tags and categories or whatever.

Please do share if you indeed do write a plugin to help with these things. I am not a coder - just a fairly savvy user so my attempt at doing such would likely not turn out well. I'm sure if I had time to do nothing but that, I could learn it but I don't have that kind of time, unfortunately.

I really do think the new style and over-all feel of the 2.5 dashboard is awesome. It's just a few things seem to be rather limiting.

If there is going to be a plugin of some kind - hopefully sooner than
later - to allow those of us who wish to move that section to the
sidebar, I'm sure this will be beneficial to more than just a handful
of users in the power user category and I can wait for that, though
perhaps not too patiently. ;-) Unless it isn't going to be done until
2.6. If that's the case, I might just keep 2.3.3 until then - sadly.


I would prefer one that does the opposite. I'd like to move the stuff in the sidebar to the bottom of the page and strect the contents out accross the
entire page. That way I have to scroll past all of the stuff I need to
remember bofore I can publish a post and I don't have a mostly empty sidebar eating up part of my screen. I would imagine that this isn't real hard to do
woth a plugin and if someone else doesn't write one before I get the
time/inclination to do do I'll most likely start looking into how to go about such a thing on my own. That's what is great about this software, and open source in general: if you don't like what people have already done you
are free to make your own changes.

WordPress even provides an extensive plugin system specifically to allow you
to do so....
