 Totally agree, I'd propose to open a new ticket to consider introducing a
 small, generic, `togglePanel` utility. Just thinking it's probably better
 to don't mix too many things in this ticket.

 I'd like to bring this in now that we're at the beginning of the 4.6
 release cycle so there's time to see if something breaks. I'd just change
 a small thing, also to simplify a bit: thinking at the "toggle button",
 well it's just a... toggle and probably there's no need to change its text
 in "browse" when the uploader is open because the plugins list is already
 there on the screen. Clicking "browse" doesn't do anything special about
 "browsing plugins", you can already browse them. It just closes the panel
 :) The button should change in "Browse Plugins" just when JavaScript is
 off. Screenshot:

 A similar change should be done also for the "Upload Theme" button, see
 #35457

 With JS off it is a real link that brings you back to the Plugins list
 screen (doesn't apply to themes):
