--- Comment #46 from BenoƮt Robin <benoit.robin at hoshikaze.net> ---
Thanks JF for answering my questions.

As for (1), I can well understand people would sometimes want to read the
original text, that's why the feature should include toggles for different
display modes.

I can also understand (2) and I'm afraid I lack both skills and time to lend a
hand.

(3) seems to me much more debatable. As a final user, I would say I won't care
a damn if the chosen solution is already used elsewhere. I just want to read
the final text unhindered while still having access to the changes. If that
specific feature isn't available, I just won't be able to use LO for my writing
usage, period, and I'll be forced to use MS, even while I'm a LO supporter at
heart. If balloons do the job, so be it... If there was another solution
available, so be it... But I can't understand stalling the issue just because
no NEW solution has yet been found, while an evident one already exists, but is
already used elsewhere.

Just to write something positive ^-^ if we absolutely want to be different from
MS, we could offer display modes (original+changes) or (final+changes), with a
one-click inline/balloons toggle for insertions, if I remember well there is no
such thing in MS.
