Description

Sometime ago we could click on "Remove from sidebar" and Flutter Inspector would be gone. So we could reopen it by going to View > Tool Windows > Flutter Inspector. After the latest updates in Android Studio and the new UI the "Remove from Sidebar" has no effect and there's no way to restart Flutter Inspector.

Given how much Flutter Inspector has been unstable for me lately, being able to restart it is a must for me.

Research direction

Reproduce the issue in Android Studio's new UI by using View > Tool Windows > Flutter Inspector, then test what happens after selecting "Remove from Sidebar." No files or tests are named in the report; done means Flutter Inspector can be removed and reopened reliably after the latest Android Studio updates.
