<Snipped quote by LegendBegins>	Hmm... I'm inclined to agree - it's a bit awkward seeing a third of mostly empty space, especially in a tall window. As I see it, the folders would work sufficiently well as a single-line bar atop of the actual conversations - it's practically just four words, after all (and you can make them wrap around for people with very narrow screens). 
	Or just move them right of the convos for now.

I considered the top bar concept, but didn't mention it. I believe that would be equally beneficial.
