I think no, because this will break compatibility with small screen (eepc for
example. At least your patch must follow old behavior to not lost users. Please
just set dockable place around preview view (album gui) and canvas (editor) :
on top, left, right and bottom. We will see later with users feedback if this
can be improved...

Yes, something like that. We remember a lots of problem with splitter size
settings to save/restore from rc file, which break layut everywhere. I hope to
not see back these problem with your patch. Marcel has working hard to hack
these dysfunction. I would to see Marcel's viewpoint here...

5/ I cannot reproduce now. nevermind...
