What is on the sidebar Panel menu and why

As of Notes 8.5, we've simplified the titlebar so that it has:
An icon
The title
A "panel menu" (on the far right).

The panel menu is divided into 3 parts:
  1.  Actions specific to that panel (e.g. Specific to Calendar, or Activities or Feeds) (Yeah, the Day-at-a-Glance sidebar panel menu has a bug because one of the  "Calendar Footer" menu item specific to calendar got stuck at the bottom... I hope to be able to fix that)
  2. Actions generic to all panels (e.g. Manipulating the panel like opening it in a new window)
  3. Actions for showing or hiding specific sidebar panels and the state of the sidebar

Here's a screenshot of a panel menu
