How about having a hyperlink area in the Properties sidebar pane instead?

I'd like to refrain from having a special hyperlink bar because:
a) it would add yet another toolbar row to LibreOffice (don't want to end up in
this situation:

b) it would add yet another UI element that we'd need to make sure was findable
(it would need to be added to the menubar and the relevant toolbars)
c) changing the keyboard shortcut for Hyperlink would disrupt user habits
d) we'd need to add a hyperlink area to Properties sooner or later anyway
