About bug 135307, so he wants to have Web View renamed to Outline View?
To be honest, I don’t understand why it is called Web View either. So, the guy
has a point.
Perhaps because ordinary HTML pages are like infinite height pages.
I don’t need 37817 and that is a request from 2011.

I prefer the Outline View mode (or let’s call it infinite height paper) because
the page breaks are distracting. I am typing something and suddenly, poof, it
jumps a few centimeter down. It is also distracting when I read my own
writings.
Or perhaps I paste an image. If I start to type something above the image,
poof, the image flies to the next page. Writer calculates that there isn’t
enough room on the page so it pushes the image to the next page.
Again, this makes reading my own stuff difficult.
I have a few hundred documents with text and images. So, once in a while, I
read them again.
I don’t print anything. I don’t need WYSIWYG.

Whatever the solution is, the total program state should be saved in a
Config.ini.
When I leave my house and come back, everything is in its original state. The
cups and magazines are in the same exact location.

Currently, when you save in the ODT format while it is in Web view, it saves
that state in the ODT file.
That’s fine but the program should have its own state save as well.
