--- Comment #4 from Jean-Baptiste Faure <jbfaure@libreoffice.org> ---
(In reply to Stefan Knorr (astron) from comment #3)
"Infinite size" refers to the fact that if you go to the edge of the screen,
you can't get any further -- so no matter how much further you physically
fling your mouse, you can't miss an item that is to that side of the screen.

Ok, I see. Thank you for your answer.
It seems to me that the problem pointed by Jiggle is widely shared by all
software having a working area between two docked panels. For example all IDE I
know fall in this category.
In the case of LibreOffice, even if you dock the sidebar on the left side of
the screen, you may want to dock some toolbar on the other side, and you still
have the same "problem".
Docking toolbars and sidebar on the left side has other drawbacks, the  bigger,
for me, being that the main working area, the area of the screen where you are
mainly looking when you type, is shifted to the right instead to be around the
center of the screen.

Best regards. JBF
