feature request: ability to close Kanban

[katchy3132]

When I use the Kanban, I usually want to check it , make a modification and then switch to another note and put the screen space to better use . Currently the only way to get the Kanban off the screen is to switch to another notebook - something easier to use - would be much appreciated.

two ideas :

1. Put an an "X" to close the panel - maybe a keyboard shortcut too .
2. Just have the Kanban on screen when the Kanban note is open - if you switch to anther note it disappears.

For those who may be interested, I have made an experimental implementation in my forked branch:

• Added a close button to the left of the title.
• Disabled auto-closing of the board on note changes.

It is still under testing. I will clean up the code and make a pull request (PR) later.

@benlau we are still searching for a new maintainer but as you familiar (a bit) with the codebase of the plug-in would are ok with checking the other PRs.
I can't call myself experienced enough, but if some of the others would check each other's PRs, it can be said that the code is safe, so I merge it.
At least there would be some progress
thx
