            Bug ID: 140299
           Summary: Show all objects in one view
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.0.0.3 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Base
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: michael at vonglasow.com

Currently the main Base window has a pane on the left in which I can select the
type of object I am interested in: tables, queries, forms or reports.

When I am designing a query which relies on multiple tables and possibly other
queries and I am not sure of the exact identifier, I have to click around a
lot. It would be more convenient to have everything in one spot.

Suggestion:

* Get rid of the Database pane (in which the user selects the object type to
display)
* Give the main (Tables/Queries/Forms/Reports) pane a multi-level structure,
much like what is already done for tables when using an external DB. Top level
is the object type, below that is the list/tree for the respective object type.
When the user is currently not interested in tables, they can just collapse the
Tables node and will only have the heading.
* Do the same for the Tasks pane: top level are objects, second level are the
available tasks for each object type.
