--- Comment #3 from sdc.blanco at youmail.dk ---
will ask UXEval to clarify the "expected" behavior here.

In this connection, here are some observations: 
  - intent behind this bug report was primarily to remove a "blemish" in the
UI. 
  - have no opinion about ideal or preferred behavior. 
  - others might see a value in using "Demote" more generally 
    (just as "Move Up" (and Down) operate on both text and list paragraphs).
  - note that when "Demote" is used with list paragraphs, the entry in the Undo 
    field is "indent" (when it should be something like "Promote").
  - This Undo field behavior may be an indication that "Promote" (right arrow)
was
    -- at one time -- an "indent" function, and not a "list level" function 
    (even if there are no list levels in the Draw/Impress UI).  
  - I am not familiar with the Draw / Impress UI, but maybe it is 
    meaningful/useful to have a generic "indent" function in Draw and Impress.  
  - Note also, at present, Draw has minimal UI for accessing this command --
only   
    in Format > Lists > Demote, not in toolbar, no shortcut, while Impress at 
    least has the arrow in the Outline toolbar. So if this command was 
    generalized, it would relevant to consider the UI access.
