The functionality for this is `NSSplitViewController` which has support 
for “sidebar behavior” in 10.11.

I do plan to adopt the controller, but ironically I am having some 
issues with its sidebar behavior because it requires a blurred 
background, and I just found a solution to the file browser color I am 
happy with, which does not require a blurred background, plus the 
controller’s setup of a blurred background causes rendering issues, 
but presumably that is fixable.
