my main grief lies with the current Properties pages :

1. A standard shortcup should be available (I have to set mine every now
and then when I update), for an easier access to the metadata

2. Inserting metadata should be more user friendly, in both directions :
-- setting a metadata value from a value in the document (eg : setting
the document name from selected words)
--- inserting a metadata value using a shorcut in the document (eg : I
press a shortcut, the software then shows a menu with all current
metadata variables, and a "Add..." entry for adding a new one).


My 2 euro-cents,
