8. The vehicle seat as set forth in claim 1 , wherein the supplemental vehicle operator support device is arranged on the side part, particularly on the armrest part so as to be moveable along a curved path.
9. The vehicle seat as set forth in claim l, wherein the supplemental vehicle operator support device is arranged on the side part, particularly on the armrest part such that it can be folded and can rotate about a swivel axis.
10. The vehicle seat as set forth in claim 1 , wherein the supplemental vehicle operator support device comprises a moveable partial support area the surface of which is supplemented by a stationary partial support area.
11. The vehicle seat as set forth in claim 1 , wherein the supplemental vehicle operator support device comprises a panel element with a supplemental support surface, said panel element being moveable with respect to the seat part, the backrest part and the side part, particularly the armrest part.
12. The vehicle seat as set forth in claim 1 , wherein the supplemental vehicle operator support device is arranged directly above a substantially horizontal armrest surface of the vehicle seat.
13. The vehicle seat as set forth in claim 1 , wherein the vehicle seat has an actuating device for actuating the supplemental vehicle operator support device, the actuating device being arranged on the side part, particularly on the armrest part, or on the backrest part.
