Sorry, yes I just read that again and noticed you'd suggested support of
collapse when document is organized with heading levels. And that certainly
tracks with some of Jim's recent work on Navigator's heading objects.

+1, and gets this underway although rigidly linked to templated headings.

But what of other documents, e.g. a 4 or 5 page manuscript with Default or Text
Body style paragraphs with some mix of images, tables, charts. Documents more
representative of the vast majority of documents being prepared in Writer by
our Benjamin users.

Seems they could be supported equally well for the Benjamin users without
imposing rigor of working with Headings--as suggested here and in multiple
dupes--by collapsing paragraphs down to their first line, and allowing writer
docshell movements in that mode. 

Could the Headings mode in Navigator be made aware of Paragraph objects outside
Heading objects, i.e. having a "no-heading" attribute?
