 It is not possibile to unregister the twentyfourteen sidebar in a child
 theme, due to the fact that in the main functions.php the sidebar
 registration has no priority.

 After I dig for while in the theme files I found out that in the theme
 functions.php there is no defined priority for the sidebars registration
 on line 198, it looks like this:

 {{{
 add_action( 'widgets_init', 'twentyfourteen_widgets_init' );
 }}}

 and should look something like this:

 {{{
 add_action( 'widgets_init', 'twentyfourteen_widgets_init', 10 );
 }}}

 What all that means is that my code being in child theme is called before
 the code in the main theme functions.php and I unregister the sidebar, but
 then the main theme register it.

 There is no priority I could assign to my unregister_sidebar as in this
 case it is missing in the parent theme.
