The drawer was awkward in my opinion, it's pretty much the only reason I used Project Plus, cause the interface element felt strange.

I like the drawer in TM 1. It is very OS X and Cocoa apps had drawers for a long time.
In a perfect world, everybody wants different things, and everyone wants a customizable text editor. 
So, it would be great to have all 3 options... (but a PITA to code and maintain, perhaps...)
