--- Comment #17 from Mirek2 <mazelm@gmail.com> ---
(In reply to comment #16)
Professional writers make most of their writings on big documents. They also
use advanced tools that were created just for helping manage big documents:
the Navigator and the Stylist. Hence, both *must* be present at once on the
screen, in anchored state, of course.
The current SideBar has some niceties and could be a nice support for the
two panes we're discussing here. But it lacks the capability of displaying
both the Navigator and the Stylist at once. Not having this feature while
dismissing the "traditional" Navigator and Stylist panes will make
professionals uncomfortable. This would cause plenty of useless mouse clicks
(hint: keyboard shortcuts would be a nice enhancement btw) which would break
the user's workflow.

As I said, the ideal solution would be to have detachable panes in the toolbar
-- the same approach that GIMP, Inkscape, and Adobe CS programs take. It'd be
great if you could find someone to work on that.

The compromise that I would suggest, then, if we must have the individual panes
as well as the sidebar, is to put the panes into "View > Floating Panes" (and
remove them from the toolbar).
