I was updating the help page for Format - Page - Page, and encountered this
change.  No opinion about the change, but, as a result, three questions and two
proposals.

Q1. As I understand, only the label has changed from "Register-True" to "Page
line spacing".  No functionality change.  Is that correct?

Q2. Is there a special reason for using "Page line spacing" in Format - Page -
Page, but "Follow Page line spacing" for the paragraph dialogs?

P1.  Note that Register-true is currently defined in the Glossary: 
https://help.libreoffice.org/7.1/en-US/text/shared/00/00000005.html?DbPAR=SHARED#bm_id3147315

It would make for better consistency in the help pages (and maybe for user
understanding) if the same label was agreed upon and followed consistently in
the UI. I would propose that "Follow" be dropped in paraindentspacing.ui

Then the Glossary could be:  Page line spacing

or should it be:  Page linespacing  ?

(I am only seeking a consistent simple style.  I leave the debate/decision to
others.)

P2. Is there any need for an "Activate" box in the paragraph dialog?  Why not
use the same simple form as the Page dialog?

Q3.  I assume setting this for Page will supersede the setting for Paragraph
and vice versa (i.e., if Page is set, then it is applied, regardless of
Paragraph setting, and if set in Paragraph or Paragraph style, then applied
regardless of how Page is set). Maybe worth mentioning that Page setting
supersedes in a note on the help page.

Thanks for clarifications. Once these questions are settled, I will make the
necessary changes in the help pages.
