In this case, browser should also be activated by default (and even be the default panel shown to the user when QGIS is opened)
And a single and easy to locate "add layer" button be shown to bring the browser to the front.
The browser can "waste" too much space when you are not using it, but at the same time be too small to work with... I'm with @m-kuhn, we need a button either to toggle it on and off, or to open it in front of QGIS's main window.

A Gdoc has been created here to collect ideas on how to implement this idea: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1aMX9jOfl10q8oETRzOHSHnRpHCc7UJ1dDnCCq3VyTAY/edit?usp=sharing
A first version is now implemented in master. Thanks to everyone involved in structuring ideas and requirements!
Missing functionality should be put in the browser, the individual buttons removed.
