Making the analysis pane bigger.

First of all, thank you so much for the new Study feature. It's completely awesome, just like all other features that have been introduced the last years.

I would love to use this new feature for training my students, but still one simple thing is bothering me: the analysis pane is too small. Because of this, all the text feels a bit cramped and subvariations are not shown as clearly as they could be shown. Also, comments are hidden in subvariations and can only be read below the board in the comments section, while it would be more useful if they also showed inline (Like: 12..Re8? is bad because of 13. Ng5! and after 13..h6 then 14. Nxf7 is crushing). If text which is interwoven with moves, like the sentence above, is only shown in the comments section, then such sentences become very awkward. Third, having such a small analysis pane just makes it harder to get a good and quick overview (nobody likes scrolling all the time...).

One simple adjustment would solve these problems and would make me love you even more: There's still a fair bit of margin to the right of the analysis pane, and it would be great if we could expand the analysis pane into this margin. After that, there's enough space to show comments inline everywhere.
I second that. Have created some studies out of annotated games, and while the feature is awesome, the comment section is cramped and doesn't look as clear as it could.
