Persist Notebook View/Layout per Notebook or User

When I open a Notebook, it automatically opens the expanded Explorer pane (to the left). I rarely use this, so every time I open a Notebook I have to:

- Collapse the Explorer pane (to the left)

- Click on the View tab in the ribbon (at the tip)

- Open the Table of contents pane (to the right)

- Wait for the Table of contents to load

 

I would like to be able to persist the view/layout for each notebook (or alternatively as a user setting) so the next time I open the notebook I will by default see the Table of contents instead of the expanded Explorer pane.

 

(Additionally, I would love to be able to move the panes between the left and right sides, but that's less important.)

 

This would be a quality of life improvement that would save developers time and make the development experience much smoother.
