Position of close button after sidebar hover auto extend

[simon6680]

I have been trying out the new sidebar/vertical tab from the beginning, and appreciate how it end up now, with Edge like auto extend on hover. After using the original one without auto extend, I found that it's more convenient to close the tab, because the close button is on the upper left corner of the favicon, and I can click on it directly. While with auto extend, I would need to first put my mouse to the left side bar to get it auto extended, then the close button appear on the right of the bar, and I have to move my mouse to the right to click the close button. The situation is similar when the side bar is on the right.

I think we can improve on it, by putting the close button on the left side of the side bar (when the side bar is on the left), more like the position of the mute button after auto extend.
