Not sure I understand, why it shouldn't appear as the idea seems to be context sensitivity. Let's ask UX real quick

(In reply to Telesto from comment #2) > Created attachment 130173 [details] > Screencast The expected behavior for the toolbar is to appear, when you start editing text. I wouldn't want to disable the context-sensitive behavior. It works for me without glitches.
I'd say it's a bug. When you hide the formatting toolbar per menu > view it doesn't reappear after the text objects toolbar. Closing it per x or via context menu seems to be the same but is not persistent.

Closing it per x or via > context menu seems to be the same but is not persistent. I see.. that is a bit deceiving. If I open Impress and it does not show the toolbar by default, it appears context-sensitively. But indeed: if I open Impress - View toolbar and then disable it from the menu, it does stay silent when editing text. Let's set to NEW, then.

In fact, this relates to all context-sensitive toolbars in all modules (like Table or Bullets and Numbering in Writer), and is not specific to closing toolbars only; you also cannot *open* such a toolbar permanently - which is just the same issue: user is *unable* to explicitly express own decision on showing/hiding those toolbars, and creating own toolbars with same controls is not a solution, since it adds static toolbars to the context-sensitive ones that keep appearing/disappearing. I believe there's related bug on Table toolbar (at least) about that.
Probably there are some interesting topics among the over 300 reports of the toolbar meta: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/showdependencytree.cgi?id=103239&hide_resolved=1
