Since this bug is focused on the side pane, I think it could be renamed instead of closing it. There are several advantages to using a pane instead of tabs: it allows you to right-click items, it takes less space and categories can be collapsed, similar items are grouped and you can use icons, which improves recognition.

I have made several mockups of linuxdc++ using a side pane. The one in this post shows the main window with a hub selected in the pane.
