Hi Matt,  
Thank you very much for your insights and guidance.  
I just want to provide more details of the setup which works for me (in the case where there are people wondering)

First, I override the fixed with of the left dock (e.g., light.css)

> .docked-view-left { width: auto !important; }

Secondly, I need to add 'minWidth' property to the view configured for the left dock.

Thirdly, to expand/collapse the left dock, I need to change the 'minWidth' accordingly (e.g., using messages in Perspective)
