It's currently possible to grip on the invisible gutter on the right edge of the console and drag in an empty sidebar.

Why visibility: hidden? display: none will prevent mouse events and other work.

Animated GIF: Bug with `display:none`

`.sidebar.collapsed {display: none}` introduces a bug, see the attached GIF.

offsetWidth and totalOffsetLeft properties are 0 while resizing:

    _resizerMouseMoved: function(event)
    {
        if (this._side === WebInspector.Sidebar.Sides.Left)
            var newWidth = event.pageX - this._element.totalOffsetLeft;
        else
            var newWidth = this._element.totalOffsetLeft + this._element.offsetWidth - event.pageX;

No need to create the properties here.

They will be create as needed here.

Nit: No need to reset them, they will be initialized again next time. I just like to delete ephemeral properties when done.

A long while ago I read somewhere that it’s better to define all instance properties in constructor since it will allocate a memory during allocation and also make property access a tad faster. I don’t know if it’s still relevant or applicable to JavaScriptCore.

I think the rationale for current style is that it's easier to read. It may be marginally faster to unconditionally define the property, but the inspector's performance is 99% dominated by layout and painting. So I wouldn't clutter the constructors unless there's evidence it's a performance problem.
