no sidebar-right in my T3 defaults?

I could have sworn there was once a sidebar-right option. Is this something I can create in php?

T3 wishlist: change sidebar-1, -2 to sidebar-right, sidebar-left...and in the back end, show them that way. The sidebar management in the template UI seems nonintuitive and unfinished.

Quick update - yes, that worked. I had to duplicate and edit two files.

1) sidebar-left.php -->> sidebar-right.php.
then reversed all left right combinations.
changed
<?php $this->loadBlock ('mainbody-right') ?>
to
<?php $this->loadBlock ('mainbody-left') ?>

2) mainbody-right -->> mainbody-left
then reversed all left right combinations, as shown.
"two_sidebars": {
      "default" : [ "span6 pull-left" , "span3"    , "span3 pull-right"             ],
      "wide"    : [],
      "xtablet" : [],
      "tablet"  : [ "span12"        , "span6 spanfirst"   , "span6"             ]
    },
    "one_sidebar1": {
      "default" : [ "span8 pull-left"         , "span4"             ],
      "wide"    : [],
      "xtablet" : [ "span8 pull-left"         , "span4"             ],
      "tablet"  : [ "span12"        , "span12 spanfirst"  ]
    },

Thanks for your solution :)

We are planning to add more layouts once we've released some T3 migrations and the July template release

Cheers
