Tickets/Topics

 * Autofilter settings being reset in some cases
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=117276
   + changing the autofilter behavior needs food reason (Heiko)
   + selecting all items *shown* in the list resets the autofilter -> bug (Mike)
   => fix the bug, keep behavior similar to Excel

 * Allow multi-cursor editing with block selection
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=96032
   + block selection exists and works well with both mouse and keyboard
   + blocks can be deleted but not content added at all selected positions
     like known from text editors
   => WF because out of scope

 * Cryptic messages for average user on macro errors
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=146176
   + "The macro Standard:Module1.macronotfound not found.
     Please check whether all files are placed at the right position" (Heiko)
   + "The Basic macro Standard.Module1.macronotfound could not be found.
      The macro is expected to be located at: /n Location: Document /n
      Library: Standard /n Module: Module 1 /n Macro name: macronotfound (Rafael)
   => follow Rafael's suggestion

 * Context menus in Formula Bar and in cell's own Edit mode should
   be unified (as much as possible)
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=146023
   + switch uno:SelectAll and uno:InsertSymbol at the formulabar.xml
   + some other places are inconsistent too
   => do it

 * Quickly insert check boxes
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=146215
   + we have a check mark bullet symbols
   + checking the bullet is not possible as we are restricted to ODF
   + having a convenient way / wizard to generate forms is desirable
   => move to extension
