When I first tried the playground I never even noticed the dots at the bottom of the window - they do not show up well in the default theme. - (they seem OK in the dark theme screenshots I've seen).
Also, I think little dots are not intuitive. It would be better if you had video controller buttons or perhaps little outlined squares with page numbers in them. Dots on their own mean nothing.
Perhaps when a new pane is added, its dot can flash a couple of times, to form a cognitive cause-&-effect link between dots and panes. Maybe this should only occur when going from 1 pane (which shows no dots) to 2 panes (which adds the bottom bar with dots). -ben
