Lot of empty space to the left of the timepicker at certain resolutions

5.6 used to look like this:

On 6.0, the timepicker is moved to the right side (it looks ok for certain resolutions and at 100% zoom):

At < 100% zoom (browser) or if our users use higher resolution, the empty space becomes more noticeable (here's their screenshot).

Feedback from users:

I find it very weird the timepicker has this massive empty space in the left.

Just curious if there are plans to use that space more efficiently.

No plans as far as I know. @elastic/kibana-design might have thoughts. @nreese is also starting to work on a React time picker, so it may be a timely request.

The top nav controls for opening and closing the time picker are on the right side of the screen. Having the time picker content on the left required lots of extra mousing on large monitors to move from the right side of the screen to the left side and then back to right side to complete a single action.

There are no current plans to move it back to the left.

@ppf2 We do plan on moving the time picker out of the top nav area and down closer to the content which it affects. It will live inside of a its own dropdown so it won't look unbalanced and space-inefficient like it does currently.

@nreese the way I read @ppf2's request it's less about left vs right and more about whether there's a better design that won't leave a giant blank area on high res monitors.

Edit: @cjcenizal beat me by seconds :)
