Echoing Matt G's last comment regarding changes, with a little more detail...

That appears along with a separate one housing navigation controls. The other positioning change is moving breadcrumbs to the bottom, styled similarly to the panels in an effort to better connect those pieces to the user's component interaction on the canvas.
