One feature that would be great to add in a (v2?) sidebar (and I didn't see mentioned elsewhere) would be a thumbnail map of the story pages.

Similar to the way presentation editors show a list of slide thumbnails, the sidebar could display a list of story pages in miniature preview. These thumbnail-pages could be used for navigation or page ordering as well. Related prior art: https://github.com/adamsilverstein/block-minimap

There are designs for a grid view of pages that can be used for reordering, if that's what you have in mind. Screenshot:

Ah, nice - thanks for the link - this is close to what I was thinking of and fulfills the same purpose.
