@hparashar27 Hi and thanks for bringing this up. Always exciting to see people offering feature improvement ideas ❤️

As to this Issue specifically, I would have to say that generally the reasoning for making an item "sticky" is to keep a useful User Interface item, such as a menu in the direct access of a user. The logo would not be considered something in that category I would think.

Additionally, making anything "sticky" has to be weighed against the fact that it directly affects the accessibility of the page in a way that can make it cumbersome for someone to get to the "sticky" menu through the keyboard only. It mostly offers an affordance to users not using a keyboard to navigate the site and those that are not visually impaired, while negatively affecting others in the process.

Some of these considerations of concern are discussed here by the WebAIM group: https://webaim.org/discussion/mail_thread?thread=6542

Therefore, I would have to say that this is likely a feature we would not plan on implementing.
