[Kimchi-devel] [RFC] Wok / Ginger sidebar

[Aline Manera]

Hi Samuel,

Thanks for all the inputs on that.

I'd be more conservative at this moment and do not change anything else 
unless the sidebar.
Only because it seems to be simpler to do now to solve the original 
issue and we can invest time in other features.

So my preference is for what is shown on ginger_sidebar_1.png and 
ginger_storage_2.png

Regards,
Aline Manera
