Fix Admin Layout When Displaying Errors

[sunnyratilal]

Whenever a PHP error is displayed in the backend, it causes WordPress layout to screw up on the options pages by enlarging the font size and pushing the footer up to the bottom of the viewport so that it's not at the bottom of the page, instead, the bottom of the screen up so when you scroll to the bottom of the page, it's actually 3/4 way or 1/2 way up the page.

Some work in this direction was done in #19196.

See ticket:19196:19196.2.patch​ and ticket:19196:19196.after.png​, also ticket:19196:8.

This behaviour/appearance is really detrimental to developers trying to debug things in environments where they have no choice but to display errors in the browser.

The sticky/folding sidebar behaviour might make this more difficult, but it would be great to not cover up the left hand portion of anything output outside of the #wpcontent div.

Who wants to tackle this?

Hi, for information, there is a patch for this in #35155.

Closing as a dupe of #35155 because that one has a patch.
