Tickets/Topics
* Extending safe mode
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=161249
+ request is to migrate some of the version 6 user settings to version 24
+ rather restructure the user profile (Stuart)
+ would export/import a user profile apart from the safe mode dialog (Eyal)
+ safe mode dialog is hard to use (Rafael, Heiko)
+ proposal at https://nextcloud.documentfoundation.org/s/Zj8nsETFTyPgeEB
+ missing feature to load an archived profile (Rafael)
+ access to each and every setting is dangerous (Rafael)
+ rather worth an extension (Heiko) or a stand-alone tool (Eyal)
=> WF; the dialog needs to receive an overhaul and has to become
easier to use
* Unexpected Selecting when character is selected and use TAB
to move to next cell
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=161455
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=118698
+ not a bug (Cor, bdac, Stuart)
+ no good reason to not extend the selection beyond it's unusual (Heiko)
+ perhaps thinking about the moving concept (Eyal)
+ how about use shift+tab to extend selection and move with plain tab (Eyal)
+ downside is that we change established key combinations (Eyal)
+ afraid of conflicts with OS; "don't mess with tab" (Heiko)
+ shift+tab unselects backwards
+ feels like a bug, in particular after the end of the table is reached (Rafael)
+ happens also when the selection is done per shift+arrow (Heiko)
+ and that feels like a bug too (Eyal)
+ not really a convenience feature as the same might be achieved with
shift+arrow
+ simply press esc and get the expected tab interaction (Sahil)
=> WF, or not
* Functionality request for Writer: improve dialog "Insert index entry"
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43530
+ META in bug 122497 (Stuart)
+ usual autocompletion of lists; IOW the dropdown has an entry
starting with BAR (Heiko)
+ probably caused by unclear labels (Eyal)
+ maybe tooltips help (Eyal) or forward to documentation (Heiko)
=> resolve WF (with request to reopen with more details)
* Improve/create visibility for font fallback lists in the UI
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=161378
+ no reason to adjust or expand usage (Stuart)
+ bug is about lists of font families (Eyal)
+ font families are unclear to me; sounds like a legacy (Heiko)
=> no expertise in the group, comments on final proposal
might be possible
