While this is a (half) joke, this is actually true.
Many concepts in the OpenOffice help are not explained: e.g., the help
does not define "bold", or "italic"; it just gives instructions on how
to make text bold or italic. And the same holds for UI elements. I would
expect the sidebar to be "self-explanatory" in the same way: we don't
need to explain what the sidebar is and how it is arranged, but just
what the individual buttons it contains do.
So I believe it's correct to track the missing Help integration as done in
https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=122175
but I don't see it as a bug that would prevent releasing 4.0: the right
place for describing the sidebar and its components is the wiki/book
documentation, where we can include better screenshots too.

Andrea.
