Description
This issue is from the Unit full-page view UX/UI ticket
When selected, components far down a unit are sometimes immediately obstructed because the sidebar opens and shrinks the available viewport width for components. This is very minor because the user can scroll, and most units are short.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue in the Unit full-page view when selecting newly created components far down a unit, then inspect the selection and sidebar behavior in the frontend-app-authoring codebase. Done means selecting the component does not cause unintended scrolling or leave it obstructed when the sidebar opens.
