I'm a big fan of a variant of what you describe here called "the lobotomized owl" which was introduced in 2014 on A List Apart: alistapart.com/article/axiomatic-c.... The author has since iterated on his original idea and evolved it into the "stack" as described on every-layout.dev/layouts/stack/. I highly recommend Every Layout, it's a treasure trove of clever ideas like your approach!
