--- Comment #5 from Heiko Tietze <heiko.tietze at documentfoundation.org> ---
Looking into the code it seems we cannot get easily rid of line styles, see
https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/78372/.

So the best option is to rename. Since Long Dot and Double Dash are common on
MSO, only "Line Style 9" remains. I'm going to use the proposed "Sparse Dash"
here.

Side note: We have 30 hard-coded dash variants (plus the option to customize
individually). That's totally wrong IMO. We don't need to (more or less
properly) name every attribute read from alien formats and should focus on an
easy to use application with meaningful defaults.
