            Bug ID: 144742
           Summary: Web Inspector: Hidden Navigation Sidebar also hides
                    essential tools
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Web Inspector
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org

Steps to reproduce:

1. Go to "Debugger" Tab
2. Pick file from Navigation Sidebar and hide sidebar 
3. Add Breakpoint in Content Browser
4. Trigger Breakpoint
5. Try to step into Breakpoint
6. Where went the Button?

The problem I'm seeing here is that the "Navigation Sidebar" is intended to contain files but instead it also contains essential Tools.

Things I'd expect being in a Navigation Sidebar:
- Files where I can navigate through.

Things I wouldn't expect being in a Navigation Sidebar:
- Global Breakpoint settings (All/All Uncaught Exceptions)
- Breakpoint pause, continue, step over/in/out
- Stack trace

Why is the "Hide Navigation Sidebar" important?
- Enables distraction free working environment
- Space is restricted

My preferable solution:
- Put Global Breakpoints above "Quick console"
- Put Breakpoint Tool above "Quick console"
- Put Stack trace in "Details Sidebar"
