I disagree.  I think the sidebar should line up vertically with the
main content.  You've moved it up so that now it's quite a bit higher
than the main part of the page.
Also, to me it looks much more pleasing to have roughly equal space on
the left and right sides of the sidebar.  You've moved it to the left
so now there's a small gap on the left and a relatively big gap on the
right (between the sidebar and the content).

Also, I experimented a bit and if you

Thanks a lot for your suggestions.  I still prefer mine to either of
those.  The first one especially (with the red title text) doesn't
look good to me.  The second one is better, but it doesn't feel quite
right to me.
