Well if you go here: <http://xsidebar.mozdev.org/modified.html>
You'll see a list of Firefox sidebar extensions modified to work in
Seamonkey+xSidebar.

Several people have also said that. However there are several sidebar bugs
still open on bugzilla.mozilla.org about getting rid of the tabbed interface
to reclaim the real estate. Basically the more panels you have installed,
the shorter the height of the available space is for the sidebar content.

In that case install Netscape 8 which is based on Firefox but retains the
old netscape/mozilla tabbed sidebars.
