 It's hard to make a widgets management page that is to everyone's liking,
 but it'd be easier to please people if we allowed then to customize the
 Widgets page a little. This same kind of functionality is already in the
 Post and Pages editor pages.[[BR]]

 I think we should allow them to set a maximum number of widget columns the
 Available Widgets and Inactive Widgets will expand to. Then allow the
 sidebars (Widget Areas) to fill the available space, meaning they could
 have two sidebar columns if they wanted. [[BR]]

 It'd also be nice if people could swap the position of the sidebars and
 the two widget holding sections.[[BR]]

 This could likely be done with a plugin, but it'd be nice if it was added
 to core. The options could be hidden away in the '''Screen Options''' tab
 along with the '''Enable Accessibility Mode'''.[[BR]]

 Does anyone want to own this ticket and create the patch? I'm for someone
 else doing it, but I could end up doing it if no one else will. I'll take
 ownership until someone else steps forward.
