Is it me or the new left menu unfolding each time you hover over it is very annoying?  
When the mouse hovers of this menu, the whole workspace moves slowly to the right.

May I suggest

- to make this menu unfold over the workspace (and partially hide it a few seconds) but leave the workspace where it is
- to allow power users to disable menu unfolding

There is an issue open for your second suggestion (to allow power users to disable menu unfolding): [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/6782](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/6782)

Feel free to open a separate issue for your first suggestion in the Kibana GitHub repo: [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/new](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/new)
