It would be nice if the sidebar plugins can be grouped so they they can be called separately in the main template. I'd like this to use a 3 column CSS layout with some sidebars in the left column and others in the right.

John, this is not an admin issue. It deals with the way typo
displays 
the sidebar. And I totally agree with you, being unable to
have a 3 
columns CSS is a pity, but I think it's going to be a real
big big stuff 
for the next version.

If one of the mainteners start to implement this, I'll do
it for the 
admin as well, but I do believe they have some other
priorities.

I agree.  But I'd like to see even more than 2 sidebars be
possible.
Think Hemingway (the theme) for instance.

I agree with Frederic, though.  That will be a big change.

I agree.&nbsp; But I'd like to see even more than 2 sidebars be possible.

It'd be nice if it was an arbitrary number of groups and they didn't have to be "side" bars: could be above the articles, below the articles, or elsewhere.

I agree with Frederic, though.&nbsp; That will be a big change.

I mentioned this on IRC and Piers said:

My gut feeling is that you could introduce sidebar divs in that interface and populate each div, then you get to position the subdivs where you like with a CSS if your theme supports it, but it'll still show up correctly in themes that don't want multiple sidebar stuff...
