I really like the project drawer and I always keep it on the left-hand side. This is not a problem as long as I use a single window: textmate opens it up in the same location as when I last closed it.
But if I open up another window (with a drawer), it is always opened with the drawer on the right hand side. It's really annoying, because (as far as I can tell) the only way to switch drawer sides is to move the window to the right screen edge and then toggle it off and back on again. This wastes quite a lot of time.
Is there a way to force left side drawers?

IIRC, Omnigroup apps such as OmniGraffle have an elegant solution to this: the show/hide drawer icon on the toolbar doubles as a "switch drawer side" button when you hold the option key. Maybe we could have something similar in TextMate ?

No, but you could extract the part of this applescript [1] that resizes the current textmate window to the right side of the screen and hits control-option-command-d twice to close the drawer and open it on the left.
