--- Comment #7 from Heiko Tietze <heiko.tietze at documentfoundation.org> ---
The topic was on the agenda of the design meeting.

   + the "Internet" recommends to search for "Reference source not found"
     + update is not reliable though
   + the only acceptable workflow is to immediately show an infobar or 
     any other non-interrupting message and to hide it once the reference
     is back (eg. after cut/paste)
   + continuously checking the status might be a performance issue
   + if reference and source are far away from each other, the information
     might not be helpful; you probably have to clean up the broken reference
     somewhere else- and jumping around in the document is unwanted
   + heavy editing potentially produces a large number of warnings
   + problem when user not hides the info, or when it comes up too often
   + double-check whether competitors do show such a warning

The decision was to check how competitors deal with the problem.
