Need 'Show Side Bar' as a Global Hot Key

As of now there is an option to hide side bar from the Side Bar itself. But to restore itself again you need to navigate all the way into the menu to do the same.

There are websites like https://gdp.tn.gov.in/ which seem to be malfunctioning with the Sidebar on.

Hence just thought if there is a Global shortcut key for Hide and Show sidebar.

Goto the URL opera://settings/keyboardShortcuts, search for the "show sidebar" shortcut, and set the key combo you want for it. I like to use F4. Note that even though it's named "show sidebar", it's a toggle to show/hide it.

@burnout426 Woohoo! That seems to be a cute and neat option.

@burnout426 As you expressed in the post I guess @leocg should take it to Opera team in changing the verbiage to #ToggleSidebar or (#ShowSideBar and #HideSideBar) as appropriately.

Simply there should be a fast toggle button (optional) on the toolbar like in Vivaldi or Chrome to show/hide the sidebar. There's a wasted space anyway before vpn icon.
