It would be good if the sidebar opened automatically as soon as a download started.
(I will look into WebExtensions and try to make a PR for this)

After reviewing this problem I seem to find the limitation in the API itself.

When an extension that defines a sidebar is first installed, its sidebar will be opened automatically. This is intended to help the user understand that the extension includes a sidebar. Note that it's not possible for extension to open sidebars programmatically: sidebars can only be opened by the user.

I don't think we can't do anything about that :(
