            Bug ID: 124369
           Summary: Writer - Track changes: Add "Accept and move to next"
                    button in the Review tab in Tabbed UIs and review
                    toolbar
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.2.2.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

Background
----------
When reviewing a document which includes several track changes it is quite
common to follow a pattern of: review change/ accept [or reject] / move to
next.

Why this would improve usability of review/track change functionality
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Currently in tabbed UIs there are only separate "Accept" and "Next" buttons
requiring to click on "Accept" then "Next" etc. This also requires to de-focus
from the document to do the clicks, move between buttons, re-focus on the
actual track change.

Additional remarks
------------------
This can actually be achieved in a rather convoluted way by:
- opening the "Manage Changes" window (or sidebar)
- Selecting the fist (uppermost)
- Clicking on Accept, the next change is selected

This however *only* woks if the default order (presumably order of appearance
in the document) is kept and breaks in case the changes are sorted (by clicking
on any of the headers e.g. like Author or Date)

Proposed enhancement seems cleaner, more intuitive and easier to use.
