I'm not sure if features will be accessed primarily accessed via sidebar in
future. I personally often display two apps side by side on my screen e.g.
browser and Writer. In this case the sidebar is disturbing because I can't
display the full width of the document. Therefor I typically use the sidebar
only for styles and afterwards I close the sidebar again. Hence I think it is
worth to have a default shortcut in order to open and close the sidebar fast
and simple with the keyboard. I personally assigned the F4 key to this function
but other F keys are also suitable.
