Option to hide backlinks from sidebar

[varanus]

Use case or problem

Backlinks are duplicated when using the “Backlink in document” option.

Proposed solution

A toggle option to hide backlinks from the sidebar in the “Backlinks” core plugin settings.

You can close the Backlinks tab, but it will come back if you close and reopen the vault.

Another option, for now, is moving it off to the right of those icons or into a different tab group so that it’s not in your way.

I believe a dedicated fix like a toggle switch would be better. Otherwise it just bloats up the UI with an unclosable and redundant section.

I’d like to upvote this feature as well. Nothing more annoying than seeing ‘backlinks’ and ‘all properties’ and ‘outline’ re-appear after I closed them out on a sidebar. Grr

A viable option is to apply the same toggle system as the ribbon. Alternatively, I dragged Outgoing Links and Backlinks icons to the left of the workspace tab header.
