31641	Admin Sidebar flashes when page loads	Collin Anderson	Collin Anderson	"Hi All, If you have the Admin Sidebar closed, it's actually open when the page loads, and quickly the flashes closed. This feels really clunky.

I see two possible solutions to this:

1. Move the sidebar javascript to `<head>` with the rest of the scripts instead of just below `</body>` . Because the `<script>` is `async`, there's still a chance it will flash, but it should happen less often. It's `async` so it shouldn't cause the page to slow down too much.

2. Just have it always hidden by default, no between-page state. It ends up being more of a hidden feature, but as I've been using it, I _always_ close it so I have more room to see the rest of the page, but maybe that's because I'm a power user.
