Comment 1 for bug 1031897

The workaround at present is to click on the "Show Soup" button to get these back. The purpose of hiding the right panel is to get maximum width for the table.

I suspect a good solution may be to leave a bar or icon on the right which expands the right panel on mouse-over for easy access.

I want to avoid a settings dialog etc., as this gets more difficult to synchronize between FF and Chrom(e|ium) browsers, though it might be useful for some users who browse fullscreen on wide displays to always retain the right panel.
