Comment (by karmatosed):

 @bradyvercher thanks for that gif, it helps me to at least whilst the
 patches are being troublesome get a visual of what is going on. I'm unsure
 what is going on with patches myself as @davidakennedy gets the same as me
 in past testing - I checked with him myself as wondered. In the latest
 patch we seem to have now gained an empty select box by the search:

 [[Image(https://cldup.com/HS40tayvP7.png, 50%)]]

 Hopefully, we can look into the patch. Maybe @pento and/or @davidakennedy
 you can confirm what you see and maybe we can get an iteration from that
 to get us back on track with the patch. Alternatively, maybe some
 indication of why it doesn't work on some people's installs, if that is
 the case. To narrow it down, I have tested in various browsers to, cleared
 cache and also made sure I'm on latest svn version.

 For now, lets focus though on what you're showing as I can't get the patch
 to show everything you've completed and that's making me go over things
 you've done. Again, thanks for sticking with this and getting it so far.
 There are a few things we do need to iterate on, some I've brought up
 before and really are ideal to making this friction free. It's great we're
 getting into the refinements here - thanks for taking us so far with this.

 - Can we remove the word 'Page'? This is not needed when everything is a
 page. This is in the search panel.
 - We do need to have the 'x' to remove showing without the panel open.
 It's just not intuitive otherwise how you remove. Ideally it would look
 like the mockup and be next to the arrows.
 - The original idea wasn't to have a fixed first page content, so we do
 need to not have that as discussion has already happened about that. It
 doesn't make sense for it to be removed, but having ability to move up and
 down absolutely does make sense.
