Description

Occasionally, I see BSP in 0.11.0b move the main pane to the right side of the screen. I don't remember pressing any keystrokes that might be causing this. I know it is the main pane because pressing mod1 + enter moves the currently selected window there.

Research direction
Investigate the BSP layout algorithm to understand why the main pane occasionally moves to the right. Check for any keystroke handling or window resizing logic that might trigger this behavior.
