Hello (again)!

I noticed that Falkon's bookmark sidebar does not work as I would
expect it to.

If I hide it (by hitting [Ctrl+Shift+B] or by clicking on its close
button) and then I show it again (by hitting [Ctrl+Shift+B] one more
time), it appears again (as it should), but not with the same width
as the last time it was shown!

In other words, even though the bookmark sidebar width is correctly
remembered, when I close Falkon and I start it again, the width
is somehow forgotten, whenever I hide the sidebar and I show it again.

Having to re-set the desired width every time I have to temporarily
hide the sidebar is rather inconvenient.

Please investigate this bug and fix it or forward my bug report
upstream, as appropriate.

Thanks for your time and patience!
