This is done because it would look very strange for a 600 pixel wide
drawer to slide under a 200 pixel wide window (without sticking out the
back side). Like a magic trick where 50 clowns come out of a small
compact car. You could probably make your own subclass of NSDrawer and
override its methods to allow the behavior you want. This will take some
experimenting of which methods need to be overridden. My guess is you'll
need to override (set)maxContentSize, (set)contentSize,
initWithContentSize:preferredEdge:, open(:) and close(:), and maybe more.
Another problem is that during the sliding animation, one can see the
drawer at the other side of the window (since it's just another window
which moves around behind the main window).
