It is a bug in the design, not in the implementation.

No, I couldn't. If I set, say, the Table toolbar to be visible and docked in
Impress, then click a table cell, then "leave" the table by clicking some other
element - the Table toolbar disappears.

Arguably, _that_ might be considered a bug in the implementation, but I'm not
sure whether it's intended or unintended behavior.

1. That doesn't help - the toolbars appear and disappear in that UI mode as
well.
2. That doesn't help - because even if the appearance/disappearance had not
manifested in Contextual Single UI mode - it is a whole other kettle of fish
which many users dislike for various reasons. One UI mode is no panacea for
issues with another UI mode, especially the default one.
