           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: LibO 3.3.1 release
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium

Many users are accustomed that in text editor exist ability to split window and
see two part of one document on one window. They will be astonished that Writer
has no Split Window.
It would be excellent, if in Writer would be ability to Split Window, like in
Calc.
It is useful to split window horizontally and vertically. But not because users
need four parts of document at once. But because on classical monitors it is
more handy to place parts of window top-bottom, and on widescreen monitors more
comfortable to arrange left-right.
This ability may significantly improve productivity because it reduces amount
of open windows, especially if users hold similar documents in one file. Exists
other tasks, when it will be more comfortable with split-ed window.
At this moment exist ability to create new window, but it is useful for other
tasks, than split window.
