software-center, so I'll close this bug report. Please continue to

Title:
  Sidebar on the left wastes a lot of screenspace

Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: software-center

  The sidebar on the left is a massive waste of screenspace, it contains
  only two, or when you are installing a program, three items and yet
  occupies about a quarter of all the screenspace the program uses. With
  so few items it would probably be best to use a tab based interface
  where only a small horizontal strip of screenspace is used.
