--- Comment #2 from lomacar at gmail.com ---
I don't know what more to say. I am not talking about comments in the margins.
I am talking about the Navigator (F5) in Writer, which lists Headings, Tables,
Comments, etc. All the comments are listed in a flat list even though they may
be comment threads (ie. One person makes a comment in the document and then
people reply to that comment). Sometimes there can be several comments forming
a conversation at one place in the document. It is unintuitive and a poor use
of space to have all those reply comments displayed in the navigator at the
same level as the original comments that start the conversations (threads). It
makes it difficult to actually navigate the comments in the Navigator on a
document with dozens or hundreds of comments.

I guess in the Navigator you can see which comments are original and which ones
are replies because the replies by default start with "Reply to ..." But in the
Navigator view it would be better if that "Reply to..." text wasn't shown and
the replies were just nested under the starting comment.

It would actually be better, IMHO, if the comments in the Navigator started
with the name of the commenter followed by a colon, but that is a separate
enhancement request, I guess.
