Tickets/Topics

 * Emphasize the entry the mouse pointer is over in the Writer
   Navigator content tree
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=152775
   + question is not whether to highlight the content in the document
     but to draw the tree node in bold (Ilmari)
   + no reason, no use case, WF (Heiko)
   + unclear whether the boldness requires the node to be clicked (Cor)
     + if so, it would be inconsistent with hoover = highlight feature
   => comment and ask for a use case

 * Rename "Chapter -> Heading" and "E# -> H#" in Entries tab of
   Insert Table of Contents, Index, Bibliography dialog
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=153561
   + naming of entries (E) and headings (E#) is confusing, change to H#?
   + see also bug 153712 for CI => HI and bug 148597 for captions
   + changing C to H should be consistent over all kind of indices (Cor)
   => go ahead

 * Calc 7.5 tiny formula bar font for japanese
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=153727
   + allow changing the font size or all font attributes?
   + see also https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=88141
   + see comment 17 for options
   + WFM (Stuart)
   + follow the cell format d) (Adolfo)
     + would result in terrible jumping UI (Ady)
   + duplicate of 88141 and valid (Cor)
     + prefer a generic option, b) from the list (Cor, Stuart)
   + prefer a dedicated solution aka f), meaning a special place for
     long text or showing per tooltip (Heiko)
   + variant c), some kind of zoom feature on the formula bar eg. ctrl+wheel,
     would be hard to figure out and lacks on feedback (Heiko)
   + following the document zoom factor aka e) is acceptable, however (Heiko)
     + has been removed for bug 127066 (Stuart)
   + remember to keep the UI simple (John)
   => make a dup and comment on 88141

 * Support/default to a non-white page background in Dark Mode
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=153334
   + duplicate of bug 152184 (Stephane)
     + convincing argument is to use the night shift and expect the app
       colors to follow (Heiko)
   + ditch the ability to create own AC (Heiko)
     + switching between two color sets require it to be available
       but the current implementation allows to have any number and name;
       you cannot trust in these user-defined sets; making it a hard-coded
       is the only way to ensure two colors per item are available
   + simplification is desirable, just a switch for light/dark (John)
   + people use the color scheme customization option (Cor)
   + suggest to trust in the predefined scheme names and if there is
     no "LibreOffice Dark" scheme a warning would be shown (Cor)
   => comment

 * Groupedbar Compact UI : missing "columns..." entry of the
   "format" menu of the menu bar
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=151430
   + add Format > Columns / .uno:FormatColumns to the UI or the menus
   + adding items should be balanced with the need, add only if crucial
     for the work (John)
   + add to the Insert menu (Heiko, Cor)
   => do it
