When I click by mouse on launcher icon and move the mouse up to select an app pinned in favorites, the mouse pointer pass accidentally over some categories at left which causes the favorites page to disappear and make my favorite app selection very hard. Favorites zone should have the first priority of being accessed and visible because it's where user puts his most used apps. So it would great if categories sidebar is moved to right to avoid mouse to pass over it when user want to access favorites zone.

But this feature could create problem for users who invoke launcher by pressing meta key. So this request is not valid at all.
