     * Bullets and Numbering dialog in Writer does not say it's about an
       implicit list style
       + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=160629
       + list styles created and applied via toolbar are hard to identify
         as such in the B&N dialog
       + no label substitutes the need to learn how this works; we may drop
         all shortcuts and ease functions but the cost is too high (Heiko, Cor)
       => suggest WF
    
     * Want indication of whether a master slide is in use or not
       + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=160403
       + MSO Powerpoints shows the number of slides in a tooltip (Stephane)
       + additional boolean indication would be nice (Eyal)
       + tooltip sounds good and is not harmful (John)
       + not much useful since "Delete Master" is only available if the
         slide master is not in use (Cor)
       => no objection, low priority
    
     * When right-clicking a font family combo-box, offer font meta-data
       + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=152487
       + unclear use case and much likely off-topic being available in
         font management tools (Heiko)
       + info dialog sounds good but rather via special characters or
         in the character properties dialog (Stuart)
       + only use case is compatibility with some other font (John)
         + likely not part of the meta data
       + the Internet returns all search results (Cor)
       => idea does not find support; WF
    
     * Make possible 2 or more impress in fullscreen each on a dedicated
       monitor AND each seekable independently with user-defined hotkeys
       per each file
       + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=160242
       + start Impress twice (Stephane), workflow is supported with a third
         monitor (John)
       + too niche, better suited for an extension (Stephane, Sahil)
       => WF
