Glad you were able to test it thoroughly and think it is worth backporting if
all is well.

My suggestion is that we add a key in the .xcu file named something like
SidebarVersion and if this value isnt '6.0', then we reset all the sidebar UI
settings to default, and then set SidebarVersion to 6.0. This is solve all the
various issues for people who are in upgrading from a profile that doesnt have
the correct behaviour.
