Tickets/Topics

  * notes pane: slides switching hotkeys
    + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=163426
    + keyboard navigation matches that of PP (Gabor)
    + missing an alternative to navigate slides from within the notes
      pane (e.g. Ctrl+Pg-Up/Down) (pg-up/down is usually moving to
      the next slide (Cor, Sahil)
    + wouldn't expect UNO commands on standard UI controls and
      get the text editor aka note pane as such (Heiko)
    => comment

  * One-step text highlight using keyboard shortcut, new UNO
    + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=163447
    + apply last highlight color with uno:CharBackColor aka Character
      Highlight Color (Stuart, Heiko)
    + uno:CharBackColor starts the water can method but no color
      is applied to the selection
    => a) fix the water can procedure and b) directly apply the
      highlight color to a selection, if there is one

  * WRITER -- in "manage templates"  window (also named as Templates)
    the template filename should be shown, too
    + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=163136
    + available in the list view mode, quite niche use case (Heiko)
    + WF (Heiko, Stuart, Cor)
    + the supposed way to distinguish between templates is via the Category
    => WF (reopen if more requests come in)

  * Extend the Spotlight feature to highlight list styles, custom list styles
    + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=163262
    + unclear use case (Eyal)
    + what if the same PS is assigned to different lists?`this would
      require to look into the styles inspector (Cor, Heiko)
    => NEEDINFO with recommendation to resolve WF

  * Add Numbering Type selection buttons on the top of the Customize tab
    of the Bullets-Numbering-Dialog
    + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=163259
    + reasonable idea (Stuart)
    + unclear issue (Heiko)
    + renaming could be sufficient; OP uses "Types" (Sahil, Cor, Lynn)
    + "Numbering" could be "Options" (Heiko)
    + "Numbering" is fine when it has a context (Isha)
    => change the label rather than the UI
