            Bug ID: 126461
           Summary: Include document name in message box when updating OLE
                    links on open
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.4.0.0.alpha0+ Master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: glogow at fbihome.de

Description:
If you open a OLE-linked document, LO will ask confirmation to update the
linked information on open. But this happens before the document shell has even
set the title of the shell, so a user has no way to know, what "This document"
really refers to. If you do this from the start center, the message box is
displayed even before there was any change to the shell, but you can see at
least which document was selected.

This is especially problematic if you have multiple open documents restored by
a session manager.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the attached writer document from the console, which OLE-links a Calc
or
1. Keep the document open, so it will be restored by the session manager


Actual Results:
You get a confirmation message box to update the links in "This document"

Expected Results:
The message box should include the referenced document name.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
Also happens on master. The string doesn't contain a reference to the file
name.
