This! This is the challenge in a default configuration right now, which
also caught me by surprise.

I think this is an interesting suggestion. Thanks for putting this forward,
Bart.
For a "normal" LibreOffice user it may not be intuitive - the challenge,
however, remains how we can inform users of the challenge (change of colors
when interoperability with Microsoft Office is required) and how to avoid it?

Thank you for the detailed background, Tamás. Do you have an idea how we can
point people towards that option (which is really hidden)? Or could some work
on the color palettes, in a default config, help?</pre>
