If you've already made your point, then doing so again more rudely does not contribute productively to the argument. Its much more useful to clarify a point or contribute a new proposal. Let's focus on constructive actions we can take from here.
I think we all agree that we'd like to do some user testing on both the current sidebar and on upcoming 0.7 designs before we start implementation. Mimi is going to proceed with that plan.
We're all too close to the design and implementation to be completely objective (developers and designers alike) -- this is a well known pitfall of application development. I'm confident that we as a team can be open to what we learn from users and use good judgement to arrive at a design that works for us.
Mimi and Sheila will get back to us with next steps for the design. In the meantime I think we need to not get distracted by this particular bug and focus on getting out 0.6.
