Well, it would be great if that's what it actually did. Sheets do this.
And I had a brief 5 second thought where maybe I'd subclass NSDrawer and
make a drawer that tweened it's size as well as it's position as it
revealed itself, but that would likely be kinda ugly and would be really
nasty where both dimensions didn't match the parent window.
Then again, the drawers aren't exactly wispy ephemeral kinda UI elements
like sheets, so it'd look strange if they went around twisting and
changing size I guess.
