</span>But how often do you configure that to give the controls such a prominent<br>
position in the UI?<br>
<br>
In other words, this thing we're doing is not something other people have not<br>
done already (I think at least libreoffice has something similar for<br>
presentations) and as far as i know none of them present the configuration<br>
options in such a prominent place as the sidebar.<br>

</span>Everything, it's not a configuration dialog otherwise ;)<br>
