Tickets

+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=118548 + WFM / colorize break symbol on type (Heiko) + color must not be the primary and only way of feedback (Stuart) + we have indicators for page and column break (dashed line) + suppressing of unusual workflows (disable the column break in one-col pages) is bad => current status is okay, WFM
 * Manual Column Breaks

+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=118969 (all) + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=118979 (character style) + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=118980 (list style) + besides or additionally to 'clear direct formatting' users may look for 'clear styles' + for lists we have ctrl+shift+f12 to remove the style / turn off numbering; congruent to f12 + problems will occur with nested styles and when a character style is combined with direct formatting + users have to take care of putting DF on top of character styles; it's not the supposed workflow + we could think about disabling DF when a character style is set (Stuart) => there are more side effects and negative consequences than benefits = WF/WFM => about list style, we should add access to clear list style to the formatting toolbar
 * Clear styles

+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=69551 (and tdf#118664) + bad generic statement, disagree with the idea of "too many" styles + what is a "good number of styles"?, what should to be dropped exactly? (Heiko) + we have several options to filter/sort styles (Stuart) => postponed
 * Styles & Formatting deck is overpopulated with styles

+ what exactly (these styles are hard-coded) => postponed
 * Introduce more text box styles in Draw/Impress
