As pressing Insert > Function List in Calc, pops out the function list as a dock similar to the sidebar, lets have it only activate in the fx pane of the sidebar.

Yes, but might it need to be a detachable dialog like the Navigator while another Sidebar content panel is active in the deck? 

Little question about needing to do something with this, but it seems like we can't keep pinning things only into the Sidebar, without moving to the next step of allowing multiple Sidebar content panel decks to be torn away and active.

I believe most calc users arent heavy into styles, navigator or function list, so i dont think this change would negatively effect any user, as the function list by default loads in the sidebar area, and doubt people would be undocking it.

This is not yet completed. The function list will open in the sidebar now, but the old ScFunctionChildWindow is still there.

There is a dependency in http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/sc/source/ui/app/scmod.cxx#783 but I don't know how change it to access the InitLRUList() function from the sidebar without using the ScFunctionChildWindow.

Marking this as fixed now. The remaining bit is a cleanup task, not deserving an open bug report.
