Heiko, we're in the middle of a conversation, so please don't just close this
as WONTFIX.

Anyway...

Also for numbering. But I'll grant you it's not that much. What's really
bothering me is seeing non-headings in the tree for headings.

I have a document with heading styles applied, but also with paragraph style
which have an outline level. They're not section headings. I don't want to see
them in Headings view in navigator. They have an outline level because I want
them to participate in numbering.

I understand that you're stating, or claiming, that Outline level = Heading
level. But as long as different names are used, then they're not. These words
are not synonyms.

You mentioned an official LO definition - can you link to it?

I must say this reminds me of another inconsistent annoyance, which is that in
LO, Outlines = Chapters, but the project refuses to name things consistently
(bug 141452). Oh yes, I see you mentioned this too.

So, with this additional artificial synonym, we now have:

Outlines = Headings = Chapters

any of those two false equivalencies is annoying, but how can you seriously
defend both of them, while keeping the triple-inconsistent names?
