Sidebar persistence in PopUp windows

The sidebar persistence works now (nightly build), thats very cool!!!
But there should be an option, so that popup windows have the sidebar turned off.
Is it planned to implement this for 0.5?

Why make it an option. I mean how often do you actually want the sidebar in a popup? Why not just do the smart thing and make sidebars not show up in popups?

Because you might well want to check on the progress of the downloads you've just started in the popup?

I don't think that you can make it so smart that it can distinguish between pop-up adds and harmless windows that are just openend by a script... when using tabs it is sufficient to have the sidebar only in the first window...

My personal opion is that the side-bar should be off in pop-ups (I mean you already have the main window). Pop-ups are usually to small (so now I'm pressing CTRL-B all the time).

If you want to check the download, you can use the main window (IMHO).
