            Bug ID: 133555
           Summary: <text:drop-down> is not valid in ODF 1.2
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: Inherited From OOo
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

Example Input List

Start a text document. Insert an input list. You get it with Ctrl+F2 to open
the Fields dialog. Then tab Functions, item 'Input List'. Add a name in the
field 'Name'. Then enter a text in field 'Item' and click on button 'Add'. Add
a second item same way. Click on button 'Insert' and then 'Close'.

Save the document in file format 'ODF 1.2' and validate the saved file with
https://odfvalidator.org/

Saving the document in format 'ODF 1.2 extended' produces an invalid document
too.

The element <text:drop-down> is available in ODF 1.3. Therefore my suggestion:
LibreOffice 7 should not write this element in strict 'ODF 1.2' but use the
current selected value instead, for to produce valid 'ODF 1.2 strict'. Someone
who needs it in 'strict' ODF, can save in 'ODF 1.3'.

LibreOffice 7 should not change the behavior for 'ODF 1.2 extended' because it
is not worth changing it now since LibreOffice 7 will be released soon and
"extended confirming" can be achieved by 'ODF 1.3 extended'.

The invalid element is written since OOo2.
