    Tickets/Topics
    
     * Ability to remove non-printing/"atypical" characters in a stretch
       of text
       + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=156507
       + there is no such thing as exotic characters (Khaled, Stuart)
       + recommended workflow is to use advanced search and replace
         with <Ctl>+F10 exposing NPC, and <Alt>+X showing Unicode
       => wontfix
    
     * The "Fast Action" Buttons to hide/unhide all grouped columns & rows
       disappear when View Headers is set to conceal headers
       + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=156495
       + a) keep the extra space and just hide the labels
       + b) disable the command and always show headers if groups exist
       + c) accept situation since done intentionally
       => c), resp. WF; also since groups still can be shown/hidden
          individually
    
     * Indication of which table rows are considered heading rows is
       "hidden away" from the user
       + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=156454
       + make a duplicate of bug 113603 "Unified table management"
         + any band-aid like some info in the context menu or
           tooltips to indicate whether a row is a header is odd
       => make a duplicate
    
     * Allow insertion of items into master without a selected item
       + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=155741
       + works in the floating Navigator ("Text" is always selected)
         but not when docked
       + unclear why insertion is not possible
       + having some random entry when nothing is in the document
         is weird
       + selecting the first item by default is not a solution
         since after adding a document one ends up with no selection
       => needsDevEval
    
     * Custom list numbering from DOCX import is not available in UI
       + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=156598
       + new scheme allows to use <foo>%1<bar>%2<baz> on any level
       + mockup prepared during the session
       + would like to have "%1{.%2}[2-]{.%3}[3-]{.%4}[4-]{.%5}
        [5-]{.%6}[6-]{.%7}[7-]{.%8}[8-]{.%9}[9-]{.%10}[10-]" (Eyal)
