it looks to me like I currently have to edit WebBarLeftExample ? as
%{ Please note that there must be a new line before the include of the WebLeftBar. Other wise the first bullet will not be displayed as a bullet. See Foswiki task Item410 }%
%TMPL:DEF{"websidebar"}%%TMPL:P{"sidebar:webindicator"}%
%IF{"istopic 'WebLeftBar'" then="$percntINCLUDE{$quot%WEB%.WebLeftBar$quot}$percnt" else="$percntINCLUDE{$quot%WEB%.WebLeftBarExample$quot}$percnt"}%
%TMPL:END%

the viewsidebar tmpl file doesn't seem to have an option for an over-ride for a site-wide sidebar :/

In YuiMenuContrib, I use another layer of IF in the default topic
%STARTINCLUDE%
%INCLUDE{
   "%IF{"istopic '%USERSWEB%.YuiMenu'" then="%USERSWEB%.YuiMenu" else="%SYSTEMWEB%.YuiMenuContrib"}%"
   MENUWEB="%MENUWEB%"
   section="topmenu"
}%
%STOPINCLUDE% 

if we add the same construct to System's WebBarLeftExample pointing to a non-shipped topic in the Main web, we can avoid forcing admins to edit in the SystemWeb, or worse, to make and maintain identical copies of this topic in each web - mmm, as it is currently.

I think I'll create a viewsidebar.pattern_yuimenu.tmpl for now

The answer is obviously to add an INCLUDE in WebLeftBar

But what Sven really has is an enhancement request

So changing to Enhancement. And please not in 1.0.X releases.
