In general, it's better to name UI items by their function 
rather than by their location within a window. The reason that 
side pane was chosen for Nautilus was because it has several 
functions that couldn't be described with one word.

Unfortunately, I am not familiar with galeon, so I do not know 
what the function of the side pane is. If it has several functions, 
then it would be a good idea to do the same as Nautilus and use 
the term side pane.
