  maybe Christian will know some wiki magic how to do?

This can be done in several ways. If we exclude using Javascript etc, here's one solution (there are more solutions):

For the pages that belong to some logical group, e.g. 'Development', define a variable through

        (:development: yes:)

Then in the side bar add something like this:

        * [[Development | Development]]
        (:if equal "{*$:development}" "yes":)
        ** link-1
        (:if:)

Now link-1 will only show up in the sidebar when the main page (i.e. not the sidebar) has defined the 'page text variable' 'development' to 'yes'.

I've tested the above on e.g. the page

        http://www.lyx.org/test/RoadMap

For reference on 'page text variables', see

        http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/PageTextVariables

- the proposed trick with (:title :) doesn't work

Eh...?

Why is there a H1-header at the top of most pages?

That's not so good for different reason, better to keep with standard practices here. If someone explains it's purpose, I can probably come up with a more typical way of doing what's needed.
