We don't believe this will result in the dashboard's predictable behavior, as other components will need to reorganize themselves to occupy the new space (talking only about the Auto Fit layout). We are planning to allow the space to be completely empty, but regaining the space might have specific use cases that will make sense but, in most cases, will have an undesirable visual impact. If you would like to share examples that you have in mind, please submit those in the idea.
