I’d like to show how you can add more functionalities to your sidebar on OpenERP web 6.1.
The interesting code from web_export_view module looks like this:

1. First (line 3) define your module’s namespace.
2. then extend (line 7) the sidebar object
3. and override ‘add_default_sections’ method (line 9)
4. then we add our new action with its callback to the ‘other’ section using ‘add_items’ function (line 37)
Unfortunately the sidebar is not so modular at this point. As I commented into the code, if we had a registry for sidebar sections/actions we could just define ours and register it. But, for the time being you’ll need to override the original method and maintain by copy&paste the “real default” sections/actions (for the original one, have a look at the core web module).
If you need help on how to create your web module, check openerp_bootstrap.
A ‘must-say recommendation’: use Firebug to debug your javascript experiments, it will save you a lot of time
