Is there an existing issue for this?

Summary

I'd like to reduce the width of the collection panel a bit more, it's wasting space.
Double-clicking on the vertical divider line should change it to the minimum width of the collection, not make it wider.

Why should this be worked on?

Have you tried dragging the pannel spacer maximum to the left? We do allow adjusting the panel width to an adequate minimum depending on the viewport width. Furthermore, you can completely hide the sidebar by clicking on this button in the app footer - let me know if that works.

The sidebar and specifically the collections panel tends to have nested collections and sub-folders which require an adequate amount of width, hence we don't have plans to further allow a sidebar width of less than 25% of the viewport.
