right, moreover I misunderstood your initial problem.

Seb has kindly worked on solving smartly this issue (r1967) plus a bit more.
the next buildbot doc build will give you the result.

the idea is to not modify much the current layout, but only to recalculate
dynamically the size of the layout-content and to put the slider on this
specific area...

tell us back if it solves the issue for you.

there are still few improvements needed, but we're approaching the final
result.
thanks SuperSeb ;-)

cheers,
Arnaud
