Did I miss a setting? Is there a way to set the default sidebar?
I have the debug sidebar first and want that to be the default but in fact, every time I load, it is set to the information sidebar instead.

You can reorder them, but it doesn't yet ensure the 'first' tab is the active one .... something for the future.
