Hi,

I prefer version 3C. Such a task pane should work like the task pane
control in Impress.

It would be nice to have all the sidebar related pages under the same
category.

Concerning the feature:

- the jargon used in the different sidebar related pages is somehow hard
  to understand, it would be nice to use the same terminology and have
  a piRegardscture where this terminology is described

- about the chosen colours: they shouldn't be hard-coded, and system
  settings should be used (where available)

You can start from :
http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/AOO_4.0_Dockable_Task_Pane_%28Task_Bar%29_Design_Exploration.
And in section 5.2, you can find the link to Xin's page above.
Or you can go to our planning wiki for find the entrance:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/AOO+4.0+sidebar .



 Concerning the feature:

   a piRegardscture where this terminology is described


+1 for a terminology table. Perhaps in:
http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/AOO_4.0_Dockable_Task_Pane_%28Task_Bar%29_Design_Exploration?



 - about the chosen colours: they shouldn't be hard-coded, and system
   settings should be used (where available)


IMHO, it depends. system settings vary and can be customized which will
make our application look ugly some time. So if we can define good scheme
for ourselves (of course, not necessary to be hard-coded), I will say: Why
not?
