You forget that the variable view might be docked together with 
something else that the user wants to be not sticky. For example on the 
right with the documentation tree. Now the user has to make un-sticky 
the documentation view as well everytime you start the debugger...
Unless you restore the sticky and raised state to the one before 
starting the debugger, although this has its own pitfalls as well.
