simple uses an absolutely positioned sidebar, this is why that happens when the
sidebar has too much content.
This is a result inherent to the way the skin is built. If we tried to fix it,
then the skin wouldn't be the simple skin. And we already have other skins. So,
WONTFIX.

This issue isn't present in 1.18 even with super long sidebars, hence it can't be that inherent in the skin (since it used to work), so re-opening.

Looks like Simple got a major change in 1.19, including addition of footers that were previously simply missing. These are positioned at the end of the page content and may overlap the sidebar.
