In the mean time, go test it and have some fun, and tape some coro on there later and do an ABA test and see if it was worthwhile.
EDIT: I looked at the pics some more. My idea would also be an ideal shelf for a beverage during REALLY slow speed testing
You could manually pop it out and then as the door opened the panel could hinge forward like a La-z-boy footrest. It would just need two simple brackets.

There are a few options on the table here, so Miller, do what you like.
