The sidebar toggle button could be re-located to inside (at the top of) the sidebar menu, as I suggested in [this recent post](https://meta.discourse.org/t/hamburger-toggle/275948/2).

I suppose a Theme Component could provide this option?

Anyone off the top know of a TC I could learn from that re-locates buttons?
