Vertical tab bar could benefit from a collapse delay

[anthonytw]

Description

When using the vertical tab bar, collapsed and configured to expand on hover, the collapsing happens much too quickly. This becomes annoying when trying to close tabs because it's very easy to overshoot the edge of the tab widget, causing it to close immediately. A configurable delay before collapsing would be nice, but even a fixed delay would be helpful.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Enable the vertical tab bar.
2. Enable "Expand vertical tabs panel on mouseover when collapsed".
3. Collapse the tab panel.
4. Hover over to expand.
5. Move mouse outside of the widget.

Actual result:

The widget disappears immediately.

Expected result:

There is a short delay (1000-1500ms) before the widget closes.

Reproduces how often:

Easily reproduced.

I personally don't think adding more delays would be a good idea. I think if they instead REMOVE the hover delay that expands the vertical tabs this would get addressed as well.

Picture this: you go off the edge and the vertical tabs collapse. that sucks. but if there wasn't a delay when expanding them again this wouldn't really waste any of your time.
