I do an enormous amount of technical, heavily-documented writing.  You may not
see any point to the pop-up warning request, but to me, you are just being
arrogant with such an observation.  There is definitely a need for such a
pop-up, or the ability to specify the point size for the font should be removed
in the situation I've described.  That would all make LibreOffice Writer both
friendlier and more reliable, while helping to avert what can be a difficult to
resolve situation on its face.
