Impress power users rely on the mode toolbar as one of the most
frequently accessed commands. In my opinion, hiding it by default is a
huge problem (I went back to LibreOffice 5.0 because of it). We should
at least have the toggle icon on by default, although it is not the
ideal solution as the reality is that you activate the mode toolbar as
your first action when editing a new presentation (because you switch
between Page and Slide Sorter very frequently, as you compose your
presentations using a mix of completely new slides and slides from old
presentations pasted in Slide Sorter view).
I have now reverted to LibreOffice 5.1, where I have activated the
toggle icon (which makes the issue acceptable, but does not solve the
issue of the missing Mode Bar). The icons to switch from Page to Slide
Sorter views are always visible both with PowerPoint and Keynote, and we
should avoid to introduce a "feature" that represents a HUGE step back
in term of usability.
