<pre>"Not" defaulting to the Microsoft "Ribbon" GUI is a major reason LibreOffice
(and AOO) are popular among Windows users. We do not implement UWP
natively--we should not pretend to offer a Ribbon interface. Functional
differences in implementation of our Tabbed NB would be extremely annoying to a
large class of Windows users.
Our MUFFIN approach allows user to choose a Notebook Bar layout of their
liking, but the Standard toolbar(s) based GUI should remain default cross
platform.
If we were looking for a MUFFIN interface appropriate to adopt as a new default
(cross platform) IMHO the next effort should be a true Tabbed -- Multi Document
Interface (MDI) as propsed in <a class="bz_bug_link
bz_status_NEW "
title="NEW - Tabbed UI: Document-per-tab (similar to Firefox, Opera, gedit) MDI"
href="show_bug.cgi?id=37134">bug 37134</a> and duplicates.
Meanwhile ongoing MUFFIN work should include taming the Context sensitive
toolbars of the Standard view, personally I like the idea of packing the
toolbar buttons into a dynamic Sidebar Deck (see <a class="bz_bug_link
bz_status_NEW "
title="NEW - Context toolbar make jumping ui"
href="show_bug.cgi?id=124835">bug 124835</a>).
But beyond that, moving Windows users to the Tabbed or Groupped Compact
Notebook Bar would not be well received.
