Responsive layout choice harms Patcher UX in phone portrait mode

When I roll into a gig, I want to pull fixtures from my van, decide where to hang them, and then tell Maestro what I've done.  This will obviously be accomplished via Fixture Groups. Generally, my lighting plots involve front wash or high sides to light performers' faces, and upstage lighting to make them look cool. Occasionally something for the dance floor.

The portait view of the Stage->Patcher screen makes this really awkward, because to change the fixture group, you to have use the kebab menu to access the Edit Fixture modal before you can access the Fixture Group select box.

Proposal: on narrow screens, remove the solo light bulb and the mystery switch.  Replace them with four radio buttons; fixture group one, two, three or disable fixture.
