Hi and thanks for your suggestions.
For the future, please have in mind:
* All people that are reading here, verifying and commenting on bugs and
preparing bugs for developers are doing this in their free time. Therefore
please be as precise and descriptive as possible and avoid buzzword-ish short
descriptions.
* Bugzilla is a tool prepared for developers. Therefore we work with one issue
per bug report. A list of different bugs or feature requests isn't the right
way to make issues attractive for other people who should implement these
issues.

This idea was discarded and wont ever be implemented because most web pages are
written with a framework or online. The days of "Frontpage" and similar
programs are gone. Other bug reports with similar requests exist but I haven't
found it now.

> Why not add a calculator with ALL the functions as a complement to the

Nice idea but is this really necessary as every operating system has it's
calculators and Calc sheets already can be used as calculator.

Please write a new bug report with deeper description of what you mean. Maybe
with a test document.

Some new fonts already were added in the past versions. Adding fonts is also a
problem of file size, so not every free font can be added to LibreOffice. Also
operating systems have there own fonts which should LibreOffice not duplicate.
Other bug reports exist(ed) already. If you have a super-duper new font which
should be added, please file a separate bug report with the exact font(s) that
should be added.

Such preview requests were already filed in this Bugzilla. You can start a
search for it, I have no specific bug at hand now. In short: The main reason
for not implementing it are performance thoughts.

> Another enhancement: add sheet 1, sheet 2, etc. to EVERY program, just like you have in the spreadsheet.
Tab feature for all applications of LibreOffice were already filed in other
bugs.
