Use Sidebar for other purpose

#1

Is there anyway we could use the Sidebar for, say, a chat roster? Or maybe a second sidebar on the right, or overlap the original one on hover. Sidebar already has grouping, item list, so it’s really perfect for a chat plugin.

I would like to find this too,
I current building a plugin for Sublime text, and a need to add items to the sidebar.
Is there a way to do that, just like OpenFiles???

I don’t see why not? How often you find yourself having the IM windows around to keep track with your teammates on the codes you all are writing on? If I put my ST into Fullscreen, I won’t know if my team lead wants me to change some part of the things I’m working on.

By having a simple text-based IM client directly on ST would save me a lot of time switching between back and forth.
