<![CDATA[[Suggestion] Auto-hide option for side bar]]>I consider that an auto-hide option for side bar would help to maintain a fully clean and organised UI while browsing when the user is not using chats, players and other features.

Right now, the side bar, while small, sometimes it feels intrusive and modifies the visualization of some sites due to the scale of the content and the user configuration regarding zoom.

It's available in regular Opera.

An auto-hide option would make the side bar come on top when the mouse is placed upon it and hide when it is not in use. This would keep the side bar active always, without manual activation when its features are needed.

In the lower part of it you will find setting to automatically hide the sidebar.
