Color Selector blocking screen when using Eyedropper

Shannon is right and it is a new development that is incredibly annoying. As you (Phil) noted, we can move it off to the sides, but why can't I make it so every time I open it, it opens at the last place I had it, instead of always opening on top the slide and having to move it every single time? Also there is no quick, easy way to close it. I don't remember the previous iteration of the eyedropper being this clunky.
