--- Comment #10 from Heiko Tietze <heiko.tietze at documentfoundation.org> ---
We discussed the proposal in the design meeting.

The proposal aims to improve consistency with other tools like GIMP or Inkscape
where scrollbars can be switched off easily and per shortcut. Such a shortcut
requires some kind of master switch. Similar interaction is implemented for
Rulers but with improvable usability (checkboxes needs to be independent). The
idea is to have a master switch like "Show Rulers" and 'children' controls to
disable the vertical or horizontal ruler. The same applies to scrollbars. 

This addition wont hurt the menu structure nor has a negative impact on
usability (besides the hierarchical relation; at least the individual options
needs to be disabled if the master is off). But OTOH the benefit is limited.

Easy hack with medium to interesting difficulty. Code pointers on request.
