That's about making dolphin UI responsive all right.

When should it hide the places panel then ? 
When only n pixels are available ? x rows are visible in the view ? How would it interact with the zoom ?
In details mode the question is very different, information being much more dense there.

I am guessing the information panel could be in scope here.

when user use splitting mode in dolphin 

> When only n pixels are available ? x rows are visible in the view ? How would it interact with the zoom ?

those questions stand for programmers side KDE, but as KDE user i would appreciate this feature when i use dolphin on my laptop or even my double/triple screen setup.

the idea is to get (or not ) an option to automatically hide the places-panel in splitting mode/ unhidden it in "Normal node". 
Now if that is technically impossible forget about it.

There is the shortcut F10 to hide the places panel btw

And you can add a button for it in the tool bar.
