"seems" doesn't tell anything. You have to take a look at the code and figure out whether other. maybe contributed, tool bars allow to be hidden by the user.
In any case, the simple fact that this context menu is hardcoded in the renderer make it very wrong IMO. When using right-click on the IDE, this entry seems like noise for most users (who aren't aware of how to even hide the perspective switcher). As part of https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=477670, I've proposed a change that makes the toolbar context menu extensible. Once this is available in its current form or another, this "Restore hidden Toolbar entry" should be removed and replaced by an extension, most likely provided as part of the workbench fragment.
