Hi Arnav,
thanks for the patch :)
and sorry for the late reply!

There was an interesting post on the forum about making find a toggle button (which
makes a lot of sense IMHO). The post [1] was about the consequences of the toggle
button in respect of the shortcut behavior (focus handling). I think that the same 
applies to the filter toolbar as well. What do you think?

The possible states for the shortcut handling would be:
* toolbar hidden -> Strg+I -> toolbar visible+focus
* toolbar visible+focus -> Strg+I -> toolbar hidden
* toolbar visible -> Strg+I -> toolbar visible+focus

We need the same solution for the patch [2].

Otherwise your patch looks really good already!
