Comment compared MSO and LO

Repro Lo 7.1+.
When bug was reported, it compared to older Word behavior.
>From Word 2013, comment numbers (like: "Commented [Initials1]") do not display
in the Comments window (bubbles) anymore, they display only when you look at
the print preview (at File | Print) or when you print the document. To have
comment numbers in Print Layout view, one has to use a macro and run it each
time. 
Microsoft has a habit of “simplifying” its Office interfaces, and the numbers
do change with context (if you remove Comment 2, Comment 3 will be labelled
Comment 2, etc.). Some users still find it useful to have numbers in comment
balloons.
Workaround in Word is to change the style of the comment balloons in order to
add a number. But with a manual return within the comment, each new sentence
within that comment gets numbered.
Workaround not possible in LO, maybe with bug 103064.
