Well if this option is going to stay as a menu item, then maybe its best refactored out as a MenuType (like the separator is) so that it can be added anywhere, instead of being hard coded in one place.
I dont like that - but its better than it being in PRIME POSITION in the menu structure and in the way for those that never collapse the left menu.
This option is NOT a menu item in the true sense of the word "menu item" - its a toggle, a switch, a system function.
Personally, I think the best place for it might actually be hard coded where the Joomla logo is in the foot of the left bar.
Placing it at the bottom only works if:
Else you'll find users on smaller devices having to scroll to access the toggle.
I agree about it being refactored out as a MenuType
