With gtk you can easily detach a grid from a gtk_paned and attach it to other container, or window (eg a dialog box), or simply leave it completely hidden. I have done it before, moving a whole widget tree between different containers, and it is a relatively quick operation in gtk -haven't done it with a dialog, but I guess it would be the same. So gschem could provide a button to make the side panel detachable into a floating dialog. You would also be leaving one of the sides the gtk paned orphaned, but that's not a problem at all; in fact, an orphaned gtk paned looks exactly as if there was no gtk paned at all, at least on gnome and win7 desktops, so old users won't notice.
