Does it feel like a relief :-).

True. Lacking a screenshot/screencast :-).
And the expected result are 'not described clearly"

I attempt to avoid (based on my memory). However my memory isn't that good.
It's really exhausting for QA workers to go through all of these
<span class="quote">> bugs (some with a non-meaningful summary like this report) instead of that

<span class="quote">> I don't want to be personal and harassing. Sorry for any bad vibrations. </span >
No offence taken. This actually pretty polite.
But
<span class="quote">> I have the feeling you are working with LibreOffice and stumbling over

Covers 90% of all cases; yes. And it's indeed stumbling over. Sometimes with
*argh* feeling. And I don't want to spend my whole day on it. So I might throw
some stuff into bug tracker. So someone else might investigate (or I will
re-check it at point with more time at hand)
I also made too

Search through they old stuff isn't my strong point; will admit that. Meta bugs
make life easier to look for something. But not a structural search user.
FWIW: Still having 'issues' how to present certain bugs. <a class="bz_bug_link

(and annoying). They technical story boring and hiding the impact ('suffering')
This is also they topic with image jump around (anchoring issues). (see meta
anchoring bugs). Most of those are 'the same thing' in different consternation
if you ask me (so symptoms). Except I can't be exactly sure. And duping is
equivalent to getting out of sight. Walking through all duplicates doesn't
happen. And some are 'actual duplicates' without doubt. Others simply guesses.
Have seen duplicates which weren't duplicates after all.
Also variant give test cases (even if it's the same thing). So new behavior can
be tested against it.

The flooded didn't come all at once :-). This is a report of 4 months ago.
But stick to enormous. Yes, you might get blinded/ overwhelmed blinded.
However
A) I might only the speed up what is actually already happening. There
tremendous amount of bug around already. Waiting to be rechecked. So this
happens anyhow
B) I partly saying *argh* not again frustration which is searching 'relief' by
a report
B) Partly a way of saying please take bugs seriously; please focus slightly
more on bug instead of new features.
Or the argument that everything is a 'corner case' the might be individually,
however there are pretty large number of those.

About this case.. it one of those symptoms; related to <a class="bz_bug_link
bz_status_NEW "
title="NEW - Pasting multiple paragraphs without direct formatting into an empty formatted one, will result in the formatting of the last paragraph"
href="show_bug.cgi?id=105352">Bug 105352</a>.
1. Open <span class=""><a href="http://bugs.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=160659" name="attach_160659" title="Example file">attachment 160659</a> <a href="http://bugs.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=160659&action=edit" title="Example file">[details]</a></span>
2. CTRL+A
3. CTRL+X
4. Start typing XXX (yellow). Formatting of the last character is used (not a
fan)
5. File reload
6. CTRL+A
7. CTRL+X
8. CTRL+V
9. CTRL+V
10. Undo
11. Undo -> No formatting.. which I assume if should be if 4 is the correct
behavior (not that I think step 4 being 'correct'; except matter of taste: Bug
105352.
I expect Undo to 'do the same as' backspace/Delete when removing text. But they
case is it's different.
And i really don't now how to add this to <a class="bz_bug_link
bz_status_NEW "
title="NEW - Pasting multiple paragraphs without direct formatting into an empty formatted one, will result in the formatting of the last paragraph"
href="show_bug.cgi?id=105352">bug 105352</a> (as this is 'spamming')
Same trouble how to do it with my page orientation/page style topic. I started
with separated reports <a class="bz_bug_link
bz_status_RESOLVED bz_closed"
title="RESOLVED NOTABUG - Paragraph style changed to Landscape after double clicking page style in sidebar"

title="RESOLVED NOTABUG - NB Tabbed 'Layout' panel, any changes modify the active Page style"
href="show_bug.cgi?id=136432">bug 136432</a> (probably
2 more?)
Have also tried an integral version <a class="bz_bug_link
bz_status_UNCONFIRMED "
title="UNCONFIRMED - Optimize handling of page orientation in Writer (based on landscape page)"
href="show_bug.cgi?id=136961">bug 136961</a> (where the steps possible
include 2 different bugs hidden away in the steps).
And I have no idea how express/ bring forward the trouble and inconsistency's
i'm noticing. At the one half 'by design' other half by bugs making it even
more problematic.
Neither can I present an "answer" to this on a silver plate. Except the current
implementation being not user friendly. And UI not being really constructive.
Now the fix suggestion is 'work around'. So instead of solving the page style
setting are manged across the place. Doing different things and 'designed' are
designed to get some confused (or mistakenly seen for something it can't do).
Not only Benjamin, but even Eve..
They quick fix is of course 'special feature' fix the example case I used to
illustrate the issue. However missing the point, that it's only a showcase of a
'bigger'. More fundamental issue. So yes, this case can be fixed with
specialized function. However it doesn't take away the issue of managing styles
being pretty hard (unrelated to page orientation]. Which simply is partly is a
dialog structuring problem (and expectation how features 'behave'). I expect
only a page between page breaks being rotated double clicking a page style (at
least I think I would expect that)
Anyhow if I put everything into one report people tend to cherry pick they
topic they want to address. [Different narrative: i don't have clear picture;
until I reported 10 bugs in the same area]</pre>
