In bug 1891775, we'll be adding a menu to customize sidebar settings and we'll need to persist these settings across windows and sessions (same as we do now for position and whether the sidebar is opened or closed).
With Nikki's work in bug 1885894, we're moving off persistence of XULstore in browser-sidebar,
and the way the sidebar attributes persistence works is that window attributes are added as properties to the "sidebar-box" element, and when windows are closed, those are saved in sessionstore._updateWindowsAndFeatures. And then, in a new session once the initial window loads, we retrieve properties attached to "sidebar-box" from that window per here. And in various places in browser-sidebar
, this._box.setAttribute(...
is called in response to the sidebar being toggled and the position of sidebar changing.
However we'll be adding more settings to this with each part of the customization menu starting with the toolsAndExtensions
in the sidebar. This bug should persist those particular settings (continuing work done in bug 1891775) and create a generic API that can be called in the SidebarController
to handle any customization setting we need to update. We should also consolidate all of the sidebar properties into a single sidebarProperties
object/attribute rather than saving each setting as individual attributes, so it will eventually look something like this:
sidebarProperties = {
sidebarCommand,
positionend,
style,
toolsAndExtensions,
visibility,
hideHorizontalTabs
}

Rather than persisting via SessionStore, as the original bug suggests, use a prefs
to globally store the disabled/enabled state of the sidebar tools.
Not entirely unrelated, I added a test for adopting the sidebar from an opener window as well.
