--- Comment #10 from Christophe Strobbe <c_strobbe-fdo at yahoo.co.uk> ---
Adding support for identifying the expanded form of abbreviations or acronyms
is not simply an issue of supporting authoring guidelines such as APA, it is
also better for accessibility. See for example Success Criterion 3.1.4 in the
W3C's Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1:
https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG21/#abbreviations 

I am not certain how this should be implemented in LibreOffice, since there
seems to be no element for abbreviations or acronyms in ODF 1.3, which OASIS
released in April 2021. (Check Part 3 of the standard:
https://docs.oasis-open.org/office/OpenDocument/v1.3/os/part3-schema/OpenDocument-v1.3-os-part3-schema.html
)

In spite of this, some inspiration might perhaps be drawn from an OpenOffice
add-on that Vincent Spiewak wrote in 2010 (in Java). See "OOo Acronym
Abbreviation Addon" on SourceForge (last updated in 2013 and presumably no
longer being developed): https://sourceforge.net/p/ooo-aaa/code/HEAD/tree/
