Steps to reproduce the issue:
- View something in the Data explorer
- Do Layout > Columns Hidden
- Change your mind
- Do Layout > Columns Hidden again, expecting that to remove the checkmark and unhide the column summaries
What did you expect to happen?
I expected clicking on this to be like a toggle, e.g. on/off. I guess you're supposed to get the summaries back by clicking on "Columns on Left" or "Columns on Right"? But I expected to toggle this and get them to reappear "wherever they were before / whatever is the default".
See also #2823. I think that there should be a toggle button for the summary panel that is near and/or replaces the panel itself.

Also a very good solution!
Yah I think we'll end up with something close to: https://github.com/posit-dev/positron/issues/2823#issuecomment-2125530927 and drag to close/open
