Re: Show File Tree Panel and Show Spotlight Panel should also hide
This should be fixed in svn now I agree with you on these issues - the same shortcut should be used for both opening and closing when it makes sense to do so (which seems to be in most, but not all, cases).
Re: Show File Tree Panel and Show Spotlight Panel should also hide
Works for the keyboard shortcuts and menu items in r801.
Does not work for File Drawer toolbar button though.
(And eventually, when/if a Spotlight Panel button is added, it should work for that as well.)
