The dock is an area where blocks can be moved to and from this area with the block to dock 
and dock to block 
icons.
The "docked" blocks appear as horizontal tabs along the left margin attached to the page.
The docked block can expand into a menu with a click on the tab in the dock area. Clicking on the dock icon when a block is in the docked position, will move the block back to its original position.
