 * Somehow I minimised the admin sidebar. Could anybody please tell me how do get
   the original sidebar back? I mean the one with “post” and “pages” and “appearance”
   as text with dropdowns, now it’s all just icons.

 * Between sections there is an arrow (->), click it.

 * Yes on 2.8 atleast can’t remember on 2.7 there is a small circle with an arrow
   on it on the left of the sidebar. I can imagine anyone with vision issues might
   not find this quickly!

 * Yesterday I noticed another thing with that admin sidebar. It would be great 
   if I could rearrange the buttons, so I can put the buttons that I never use to
   the bottom. In FireFox it looks like I can drag and drop them, but I can drag,
   not drop. IE doesn’t even drag. Something for a future release perhaps?
