Add setting option for "hover" or "click-to-open" sidebar (left pane)

With the recent UI update, we’ve lost the ability to reveal the sidebar by hovering and are now only able to have the sidebar open or collapsed. (Photos below.)

I would like to suggest a user setting that allows each user the choice between sidebar reveal options. For those of use with limited screen space and need the convenience of switching boards quickly: being able to hover to reveal the sidebar, rather than having it always open, is the easiest and fastest option. Losing this feature is a big downgrade in my opinion. However, I understand it wasn’t for everyone, which is why I think a setting option would be ideal.

Yeah, since the most recent update, this has been nagging at me. I hate (I know, “hate” is a strong word) the loss of the ability to hover over the navigation bar. The “<” symbol (hide) auto-hides when you hover off of the side navigation bar and seems to take longer to pop up some times. Is there no way to restore this feature? Please?
