:-( I try to remember to copy any "extenals" to Bugzilla, when I first look at
a bug. I asked QA to add this as some "first" step to
<a href="https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/BugTriage">https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/BugTriage</a>.

I second this. I was fooled by this feature in <a class="bz_bug_link
bz_status_RESOLVED bz_closed"
title="RESOLVED DUPLICATE - LABELS: Problems with "Single Label" option"
href="show_bug.cgi?id=140719">bug 140719</a>; I even did a
bibisect, because it felt like a bug. And that the selection happened, because
the user changed the font size and therefore he had text selected on print.
Maybe to mitigate the impact for affected users we could assign a shortcut like
Ctrl+Alt+P. I wouldn't put it in the default toolbar, or just as an alternative
drop down to the default print (like for new, open, etc.).
I asked, if UX has an idea how to make the "print selection" more obvious in
the dialog to the mostly unexpecting user; again my impression.
Reading <a class="bz_bug_link
bz_status_NEW "
title="NEW - printing when a selection is active should take in account it and activate the "print selection" radio button"
href="show_bug.cgi?id=54908">bug 54908</a> again, it just seems "fixed" in Writer; I didn't confirm
that.
OTOH I don't know, if we just overreact over some minor problem? But there are
a few dups and this feature feels like a rather special case...
And I set the bug to NEW ;-)</pre>
