Details

As a result of the recently introduced vertical tabs and changes to the sidebar, some users report the wish to hide/disable specific extensions from the sidebar.

Currently there is no way to disable the sidebarAction using sidebarAction.disable(). In addition, clearing using setPanel is not possible as extensions without sidebarAction.default_panel fail to load.

Ideally we would introduce a sidebarAction.disable() API allowing to remove the extension from the sidebar or allow browser users to be able to turn individual extensions on / off.

We are adding UI to allow users to toggle the visibility of sidebar in bug 1944719.
