<pre>The AutoText dialog doesn't have great usability (see <a class="bz_bug_link
bz_status_NEW "
title="NEW - Writer UI: Terrible usability of AutoText dialog when creating new AutoText"
href="show_bug.cgi?id=52607">bug 52607</a>).
A small improvement would be if the dialog pre-filled tha name and shortcut
based on the selected text.
Name could be the first X words from the first line, no longer than 20-25
characters, and shortcut could be what it'd automatically add if the user
entered that name themselves.
Also, upon the first click into Name or shortcut fields, pre-select field
content, then entering a custom name is zero extra steps.
I'm not sure how useful it'd be in the end, but I think it's a nice touch
having something there by default, without adding any overhead for the user.</pre>
