Alternate Location of Dock - on Left or Right edge of screen

[MarkJelic]

Problem

Most screens are viewed in Landscape. That means that Vertical screen real estate is rarer, and thus more precious, than horizontal screen real estate. MacOS, which from what I can tell Elementary is largely styled on (thankfully), allows for the Dock to be placed on the Left or Right edges of the screen, as well as the default Bottom. So does Windows 10, but not Windows 11 which is the main reason I will never upgrade and am looking to replace it with Linux like this.

Proposal

Please allow for the placement of the Dock to be also possible on the Left or Right edges of the screen. This option could be added to the Settings > Desktop > Dock & Panel as a drop down list.
