When save/save as functions are called they internally call the openFile() function, in the open file function the side bar item is set to Table of Contents (ToC) item
```
if ( m_document->metaData( QStringLiteral("OpenTOC") ).toBool() && m_sidebar->isItemEnabled( m_toc ) && !m_sidebar->isCollapsed() && m_sidebar->currentItem() != m_toc )
{
m_sidebar->setCurrentItem( m_toc, Sidebar::DoNotUncollapseIfCollapsed );
}
```
so I just store the sidebar's item before saving and then set this item back if changed.
