I compared it again, with some Arabic text. Slow with the old engine, bit
faster but still slow with the new engine.

It depends how you interpret a regression. There are multiple sub-types:
a. Regression due a change in the operation system (the code has not changed,
isn't working anymore as expected)
b. A regression between versions of LibreOffice (the behavior changed to the
worse, sec)
c. Technical approach. A unexpected /unintended performance loss.
A/B feel like regressions in the users point of view, but maybe not in the
technical sense of a dev. So it's depending how the keywords are meant (not
clear to me)
Anyway, losing the Latin shortcuts is quite noticeable in quite a lot area's.
(I keep finding new variant). For example large copy/paste actions
I would add it to the tender suggestions. It's quite a core feature. Or an
attempt to find a sponsor for this one :-).</pre>
