LibreOffice has settings for icon sizes for "toolbar", "notebookbar", and
"sidebar".

However, I have noticed that even if I set the sizes to "small", the toolbar
buttons in the sidebar panels (such as the F5 navigator or F11 stylist) are
always shown at regular full/large size. You can even visually notice the
difference in size when compared to the buttons on the notebookbar (ex: the
Bold button vs the checkmark button in the Navigator in the attached
screenshot).

Looking at those widgets with the GTK Inspector, we can see that those
toolbars' "icon-size" property was set to "GTK_ICON_SIZE_LARGE_TOOLBAR" no
matter what the user's preference was.

When changing the size to small, it should probably set
GTK_ICON_SIZE_SMALL_TOOLBAR and refresh those widgets, or whatever it needs to
do to compact them without needing to restart the whole app.

It could make sense if were to also reduce a bit the amount of padding between
widgets when it does that, but at least (re)setting the toolbar/button sizes
should already be an improvement. As it stands, particularly in the Navigator,
those three stacked toolbars eat roughly a quarter of my available height for
the navigator's contents. I wish the Navigator in particular was a bit more
space-efficient in that regard.
