Dear Torsten (and others),
I'm also planning to use xournal for a lecture next term, and for that,
I might also be happy to have this side bar feature, and I'd be willing
to contribute on updating it (if necessary).

part of the screen? (That's what I was planning to try.) Or is there
another additional xournal feature.
