I implemented a Typo multiple sidebar solution that doesn't require changing any Typo code and supports any number of sidebars (2, 3, or more).
It works by combining a new sidebar component, "Divider", with a couple of helper functions for use in the theme/layout/default.rhtml file. The "Divider" component simply inserts an HTML comment that is ignored by other themes. The comment line is used by the helpers to partition the sidebar items into groups that the layout can position anywhere. The web page link above includes a simple theme, "Dual Sidebar", that shows how to use the "Divider" component and its helpers.

Very cool Dan. Thanks for the link! Is this in the documentation?
