How about this - I do have a pending patch that will shrink the archives
footprint a bit further without changing its location on the page. If that seems
to make things easier for scrolling purposes, then we can leave that for now.
Thinking out loud for the future, perhaps we can find a way to experiment
with a few different interfaces prior to rolling them out to collect feedback
and see if there are improvements we can make like this.
Thanks,
Jonathan
