 Every time WordPress updates, it changes the edit screen mode to
 FULLSCREEN. This is a defect in that users set this to "sidebar" mode, and
 that mode is changed, causing confusion and many many questions as to WHAT
 HAPPENED TO THE BACKEND NAVIGATION!

 In it's initial inclusion, this feature was hastily added during a Release
 Candidate to communal push back. In the announcement post it mentions that
 the option is LOCAL but would be changing to a persistent option saved in
 the database. This hasn't happened and it has been almost two years and
 COUNTLESS updates since.
