The function to hide the sidebar is so important that you accept detrimental
effects on the workflow? Btw, something that has no counterpart as F6 ignores
the sidebar when it is closed.

Again, you scarify the common access in order to allow collapsing a section.
How to you reach to the list of styles? (That's one issue mentioned by Texou).
And regarding "more options" the first place to access the dialog should be
from the main menu (but tabbing to it could be possible).

Hard to believe that all content panels can have own shortcuts. I would rather
make then accessible per hotkey, e.g. &Style (first S is for the main menu
second to go to the sidebar) or &Character etc.
