--- Comment #7 from Thomas Lendo <thomas.lendo at gmail.com> ---
This is a difficile issue. In 2017, Bug 111846 was implemented to have a
positive wording in all settings and to have no checked option in the default
F&R dialog.

Then in 2018 with Bug 98544 it was implemented that the F&R dialog should
remember the 'other options' state. If something is checked then the dialog
should stay open.

Also in 2018 the diacritic setting was changed so that it's checked by default.
This reversed parts of the initial idea of Bug 111846.

I think Bug 98544 must be re-implemented in a smarter way. The F&R dialog
should be collapsed at it's first opening. After that the user's choice and/or
the checkboxes' status should be considered to decide if it's collapsed or not.
If a user or a program function changes a checkbox status then the dialog
should open in it's full extent. With this no one will oversee a setting.
Overseen settings hidden in the collapsed dialog could harm the search function
in a user's point of view.
