I've pushed a change to the placement now as well. Please test and give 
feedback. Imo putting it _below_ the editor is much better, esp. when editing 
the last visible line at the bottom of the editor. Furthermore we can now be 
as large as the main window, not only as big as the editor (which was esp. 
problematic if we show toolviews at both sides of the editor).
