Tickets

* Enhance autofill to better sense data blocks with empty cells or columns + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=126189 + Stuart WF, Heiko WFM + MSO fills if first or second column to left (or when empty to the right) contains of data => simple logic, accepted

* Revise layout of HTML color palette swatches + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=126403 => WF, better realize as extension + done at https://extensions.libreoffice.org/extensions/html-color-palette-update

* User customization of the styles displayed in the Sidebar 'Styles' deck + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=126204 + make it a duplicate of tdf#69551 or change summary to "Store dropdown selection" => keep the ticket open for storing the dropdown index

* Writer styles: Heading subgroup for TOC related stuff + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=126257 + sorting by name is bad as Title, for example, is placed apart from H1..H9  + move "special" headings into a further subgroup (Andreas) + use "Table of Content" (Cor) + use "Index Heading" (Andreas) cause there is "Index" for the not heading stuff + "Index Styles" is used in the filters list + such a "Special" or "ToC" entry would have to be a proper style itself for All Styles (Heiko, Thomas) + sorting issue is not solved by an additional entry unless we start with underscore or the like => keep it boiling for a week more but close when no more input is done

* Writer styles: Addressee and Sender group in subgroup Envelope + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=126258 + introduce a node Envelope and add address and sender to it  + same issue: new item needs to be useful => keep it boiling for a week more but close when no more input is done

* Writer Character Styles are not intuitive to read + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=126277 + add a somewhat artificial root for the existing hierarchical filter + eg. Standard (Emphasis, Strong Emphasis, Source Text...), Annotation (Endnote, Footenote...), References (Links...) + we run into the same problem as above => same decision

* How about another filter like "Hierarchy Simple" (Bogdan) + would solve the Envelope and ToC issue as well as character style list, if those styles are not so often used => good idea, will add this to the discussion on the tickets

* Show icon for styles that have a UNO command (Andreas) + icons would pop out and make the "interesting" styles more obtrusive => good idea, please file a ticket
