--- Comment #2 from Heiko Tietze <heiko.tietze at documentfoundation.org> ---
The pandora's box for a distraction-free view is bug 37817. With a similar
request in bug 37967 about an "Option like MS WORD's normal view". The web-view
(along with html editing features) is a legacy that we should get rid of. 

"Pageless" is an oxymoron for text processors, in my opinion. Keep in mind that
a text may have content in header/footer. Some tickets discuss the whitespace
feature. Bug 94164 asking for less spacing between pages (resolved WFM) and bug
130023 requesting a reasonable space between pages.

Assuming that "I am looking for something akin to the 'pageless' view in Google
Docs" intends to have a distraction free view mode, I suggest to make this
ticket a duplicate. Agreed, David?
