--- Comment #14 from Heiko Tietze <heiko.tietze at documentfoundation.org> ---
We discussed the topic in the design meeting.

Adding a label before the dropdown occupies a lot of space (as Jim's
screenshots clearly show). Too much. And having the label above stacks quite a
lot controls before the actual content.

But if we implement that picking an entry in the Navigator list selects the
appropriate item in the "Navigate By" dropdown, and vice versa, the workflow
might be easier to understand. The mutual selection is not always possible, for
example "Repeat Search". And it makes sense to match the two lists and have the
same order and names (for example Graphics vs. Images). Those items that are
only available in the "Navigate By" dropdown could be shown after a separator
line.

I wonder if the "Go To Page" control can be replaced by "Page". Feels as if I
asked this before. But we could get rid of one extra UI element and have a
cleaner UI.
