Hi @azamat88, and welcome back to Trac!

This message was added intentionally in #53569. Does it still occur with all plugins disabled and using a default theme?

Going to close this out. As @dlh mentioned, this was intentionally added for 5.8. Feel free to reopen if there is more information that was not included in the original report.

Hello!

I'd like to chime in here by saying that PluginSidebar and PluginSidebarMoreMenuItem can't be used without wp-editor / wp-edit-post and it would be super relevant to be able to add such sidebar plugins in the new widgets area. I, for example, created a plugin that allows the user to make the sidebar wider when editing blocks. Since PluginSidebar and PluginSidebarMoreMenuItem are needed, I also need to enqueue wp-edit-post. Granted this one is already added in the posts editing screen, but I mark it as a dependency since I need the components that live inside that.

Maybe PluginSidebar and PluginSidebarMoreMenuItem should be extracted to make them available without the full block editor then?
