Sidebar split right (vertical)

The “Split right” menu item and command are no longer available if the active tab is in the sidebar.

You have removed a feature to split right sidebar vertically. This is insanity.
I can still achieve having right sidebar splitted like I want it to in Obsidian 1.9.12 with editing workspace.json:

    "id": "123",
    "type": "split",
    "children": [
      {
        "id": "456",
        "type": "split",
        "children": [
          {
            "id": "789",
            "type": "tabs",
            "children": [
              {
...
              }
            ]
          }
        ],
        "direction": "vertical"
      }
    ],
    "direction": "horizontal",

, by putting a vertically-splitted group inside a “horizontally” splitted group with just one item.

There’s absolutely no reason to not allow vertical splitting of the sidebar. Don’t break things that work, don’t make user experience worse. It is common sense to be able to split my sidebar in any way I want.
I don’t want to lose this feature some time in future when you decide to validate workspace.json or something. Give it back.
