I disagree with clutter. All big applications provide a feature to hide or show
there scrollbars within a single command inside the main menu, often with a
shortcut.
LibreOffice however separates this feature into two different controls, shown
into a submenu that clutters the UI and force the user to use the mouse twice.

I can agree that separating the visibility of the different scollbars might be
useful to a very low amount of users (e.g. Tablet). But it also feels very
unprofessional for the majority of users that are used to a single control from
other applications.
Adding a master control inside the already existing submenu wouldn't clutter
the UI more then it already is. Rather it would allow us to add a commonly used
shortcut and the users to shift this control into the main-menu.
