As far as I recall (after all these months my memory fades out...), I used it
for these three things:

1- filter webpages from history
2- filter webpages from bookmarks
- browse files

I cannot recall any other options that were available in the sidebar, my bad :/

Regarding 1 and 2, please note that although extra windows give more room to
see things, extra windows are also more annoying (at least for some of us), so
it's not bad to activate them via ctrl+h or whatever when we really want/need
this, but at least for me, the sidebar always helped me to find things in the
best way.

Regarding 3, I, for one, use dolphin as my default file browser and I'm very
happy with it, but sometimes while browsing you want to access a file or
download to a path, and doing so via the sidebar instead of opening an extra
application, may be good. This is also a good option when Konqueror is used to
visualize e.g. svg's (my default way to see these files), so you can browse via
the sidebar and open them in the same window.

I am sure other people can contribute to this with more examples...
