Out of curiosity how come these elements, which used to exist nicely in a
column beside the editing window, were moved below the main content area?
Examples: Category checkboxes in Write > Post or the aforementioned Page
Template in Write > Page

Please forgive if this is re-hashing an old topic, I just joined the list a
few days ago and downloaded a nightly build, couldn't find a method to
search the archives. There are a number of changes like this which I would
assume there were logical reasons for, but to the average user of Wordpress
might seem like change only for the sake of change rather than progress
based on improved usability.

Thanks,
